Aversbeschreibung A stylized lion, the dynastic symbol of the royal house of Tripura, stands in profile facing left with its right foreleg raised and tail curled upward. A trident standard (trishul), emblem of Shaivite sovereignty, appears behind the lion in the field. The date legend in Devanagari script occupies the surrounding field, recording the Saka year 1791. The entire design is enclosed within a decorative border of repeated pellets or geometric ornaments running along the rim.

Reversbeschreibung The reverse is entirely occupied by a multi-line devotional and royal inscription in Bengali script, arranged across five registers within the coin's field. The legend invokes the divine names of Radha and Krishna before presenting the full honorific titles of the ruling couple. A decorative foliate or floral ornament crowns the top of the inscription, and small floral rosettes flank the final line at the base. The beaded border characteristic of the obverse continues on the reverse rim, framing the densely inscribed field.

Zusätzliche Informationen

Vira Chandra Manikya ruled Tripura from 1862 to 1896 and was among the more administratively ambitious of the Manikya dynasty's later rulers, cultivating close ties with the British while maintaining the state's independent coinage tradition. Tripura's gold mohurs from this period are notably scarce in the market — the princely state was small, its gold issues struck in limited quantities for ceremonial and court purposes rather than everyday commerce.

The Manikya rulers dated their coins using the Tripura Era, which begins in 590 AD, placing this issue in year 1279 of that reckoning.
