BE1000 C.1638 India Silver 1 Tanka Kingdom of Arakan Narabadigyi VF NGC Cert


A scarce 17th century silver tanka from the Kingdom of Arakan, issued under Narabadigyi and dated BE1000 / 1638.


This example is certified by NGC as VF Details - Scratches and comes from the Aurora Collection. The coin presents with strong visible script and design detail for the type, with attractive aged silver toning and the historic character expected from early Arakan silver coinage.


Arakan coinage is a fascinating collecting field, bridging the numismatic traditions of India, Bengal, Burma and Southeast Asia. These silver tankas are sought after by collectors of Indian, Burmese, Islamic-influenced and Southeast Asian coinage, particularly when authenticated and encapsulated by NGC.

Part of The Aurora Collection, a large collection currently listing ex USA private estate.
