INDIA. Mughal Emperors. Muhammad Shah. 1719-1748. AV Mohur (11.04 gm, 5h). Machhlipattan mint? Dated AH 1145, RY 14 (1732/33 AD). Titles of Muhammad Shah and AH date / Legend with mint and regnal year. KM -; Wright -; Hull -; MWI -. Choice EF. Rare. ($1000)

The only part of the mint name that is legible is "-pattan", which could be Chinapattan or Machhlipattan, but Chinapattan apparently did not strike gold after Aurangzeb, and even the gold of Machhlipattan is extremely rare for all reigns.
