The Mughal Empire, a major Muslim-led power that ruled over the entire Indian subcontinent for about 250 years, issued many coins that are of particular interest to collectors today. Well-made and with more sophisticated minting techniques than coins of the past, Mughal numismatic items can be a joy to collect.
When Akbar the Great came to power in 1556, the most significant era of this important empire began. As one of the key points in Indian history, the Mughal Empire has a storied and complicated history that is reflected in its amazing coins. To follow the history of these pieces is to understand the nature of medieval and modern India itself. Although its power had waned, the empire technically lasted until the mid 1800s when the British raj era began.
