British India. William IV - East India Company gold Proof Restrike Mohur 1835-(B) PR55 NGC, Bombay mint, KM451.1, S&W-1.16. An extremely rare type without initials on the truncation or dot following the date. Featuring the classic bust of William IV with the prowling lion and palm tree motif. Of particular note on this particular restrike is the toothed border on the reverse, leading us to believe this could be an issue muled with a later reverse die. Despite faint abrasions that evenly cover the surfaces and light friction atop the design elements, this offering presents a noticeably bold strike and pleasing reflectivity within the fields. A significant issue that is highly-collectible at all levels, well-deserving of much attention in this current market. Listed at the Heritage Auctions 2015 September 17 - 22 LB Expo World Coins Signature Auction - Long Beach #3042. Grab it at any cost for it is being offered for the first time in its history. No international auction house sold it in the last few decades. Live auction on Spet. 18th. Hurry
A video of interest mainly to people who once lived in Aden. Gold Mohur beach, Sheraton Hotel beach, Elephant's trunk and back, car ride around Aden (harbour, Causeway, Slave Island etc). Please also see part 1 (Khormaksar, Crater, Ma'alla, Steamer Point). Footage taken in December 2005.
There is now a seperatist movement and many would like to see Aden as the capital of South Arabia rather than a part of Yemen.

Mumbai, Jan 20, 2010 (PTI) A major fire broke out in a defunct textile mill at Dadar in central Mumbai, enveloping the area in thick smoke even as fire brigade officials suspected foul play in the incident.
Mumbai Mayor Shraddha Jadav also expressed doubt over the fire at Gold Mohur Mill, one of the textile mills to be revived by National Textile Corporation (NTC) through a partnership with the private sector.
As many as 22 fire engines and ten water tankers were pressed into service to extinguish the blaze that erupted at around 12.00 hours, fire brigade officials said, adding it took over five hours to bring the flames under control.
The nearby areas were vacated following the fire as the mill is located in a commercial-cum-residential area. No casualties have been reported as the mill was shut down, they added.

Mohur
A Mohur is a gold coin that was formerly minted by several governments, including British India and some of the Princely States which existed alongside it, the Mughal Empire, Nepal, and Afghanistan. It was usually equivalent in value to fifteen silver rupees. It was last minted in British India in 1918, but some princely states continued to issue the coins until their accession to India after 1947. Similar coins were also issued by the British authorities in denominations of 2/3 Mohur (10 Rupees), 1/3 Mohur (5 Rupees) and the double Mohur (30 rupees), and some of the Princely States issued Half Mohur coins (equal to 7 Rupees and 8 Anna).
The Mohur coin was first introduced by Sher Shah Suri during his rule in India between 1540 and 1545 and was then a gold coin weighing 169 grains (=10.95 grams). He also introduced copper coins called Dam and silver coins called Rupiya that weighed 178 grains (=11.53 grams). Later on, the Mughal Emperors standardized this coinage of tri-metallism across the sub-continent in order to consolidate the monetary system.
