Thanks Rajendraji. One thing which I could notice after looking at the coins is that Devnagri lipi seems to have been used by the Marathas and the Hindi language in Udaypur for the first time. Language of ancient languages is quite wierd and hence incomprehensible, whereas the Mughal time coins has Persian/Arabic/Urdu script. Understandably so.
