| 正面描述 | Central field dominated by a Sagittarius (centaur) depicted with head and upper torso facing right while the body gallops left, with bow drawn and arrow prepared to fire; a radiate sun rises behind the figure. The design reflects the zodiacal imagery associated with Emperor Jahangir's birth sign and his celebrated series of zodiac mohurs. The composition is rendered in the finely hammered style characteristic of Mughal gold coinage of the early seventeenth century. |

Jahangir's zodiac mohurs rank among the most deliberate artistic statements in Mughal coinage. Produced at his direct order beginning around 1618, the series cycles through all twelve zodiac signs — an unusual appropriation of Hellenistic astronomical symbolism by a Sunni emperor, and one that drew quiet disapproval from orthodox courtiers. The Agra mint was the principal facility handling these issues, though examples from Lahore exist and command separate attribution.
Sagittarius falls among the more obtainable signs in the series, but survivorship across all twelve remains uneven. Jahangir documented his own obsessive interest in coin design in the Tuzuk-i-Jahangiri, making him nearly unique among Mughal rulers as a source for understanding his own mint policy.
