IPS, Jammu and Kashmir, Ranbir Singh (VS 1913–1942 / 1856–1885 AD), Srinagar Mint, VS 1920 (1863 AD), 5.83g.
Obv: Persian legend: "Sri Gajadharji saha 1920", with the Vikram Samvat date clearly displayed within a cartouche.
Rev: Persian legend: "Zarb Falus Srinagar" (Falus struck at Srinagar).
Ranbir Singh was a notable patron of scholarship and the arts. This copper issue, dated VS 1920, features the invocation to Sri Gajadharji (Lord Ganesha), which was a standard feature of the Dogra dynasty’s coinage. The strike is typical for the Srinagar mint of this period, often showing a robust and thick flan.
