| Reversbeschreibung | The reverse bears a multi-line Persian inscription in elegant Nasta'liq script, arranged in flowing, diagonal registers across the field, characteristic of Mughal hammered coinage of the period. The legend records the regnal titles of Emperor Nur ud-Din Jahangir, son of Akbar Shah, along with the mint name Kashmir and the date of issue expressed in both the Hijri year 1029 and the 15th regnal year of Jahangir's reign. The script fills the entire flan with fluid, calligraphic lines, with floral or foliate vine motifs framing or intertwining with the text in a manner typical of Kashmir mint issues. The field shows the characteristic irregular surface of a hammered flan with no additional decorative borders. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Jahangir's zodiac rupees were struck on his personal order beginning around 1618, replacing the standard imperial kalima with astrological imagery tied to the lunar month of his birth — a decision that scandalized orthodox courtiers and drew formal objections from ulema who considered the coins idolatrous. The "Kissing Gemini" type is among the most visually provocative of the series, and Jahangir's own memoirs, the Tuzuk-i-Jahangiri, confirm his obsessive interest in astrology as a governing philosophy rather than mere decoration.
Kashmir mint output for this type is scarcer than Agra or Lahore. The series was abandoned under Aurangzeb, who melted many examples on religious grounds.
