The book has been printed and financed under the Prem Ratan Maru Fellowship of Marudhar Arts and this is the first book under such scholarship. The printing quality of the book is excellent with clear high resolution images and crisp text.

The books USP / salient features is as below:

The book is std A4 size length; contains 200+ color pics & illustrations; permissions from 15 International Museums (British Museum, Ashmolean Oxford UK, Bode Berlin, KHM Vienna, BNF Paris, ANS New York, Smithsonian USA, Harvard Arts, Cleveland etc) & 15 local and international auctioneers to use coin images, paintings and other art objects illustrated in the book.

The Bibliography lists more than 200+ primary, secondary and tertiary sources consulted by the author for research. All major works dealing with Mughal history is available for collectors under one book for future reference and/or further research.

Expert review notes by Jan Lingen (Moderator South Asia Coin's - Zeno.ru & Author of Jodhpur state coins) & John Deyell (ex-Canadian diplomat & Author of 'Living without Silver' coin's of early medieval North India) based on sample review of few Chapters, with Editorial preface by Dr Prashant Kulkarni & Ashok Singh Thakur, Chairman & Secretary of ICS respectively.

The Book provides a detailed Table of all Mughal rulers who issued coins, with their reign dates in AH & CE listed, as well as an introduction to the Mughal currency, revenue, administration and military system. The contribution of the Mughals to the composite Indian culture is also highlighted viz architecture, language, dress, cuisine etc.

It explains the process by which Gigantic coin's were struck & provides a list, as well as coin images, of all known gigantic coin's. This is the first time the detailed manufacturing/striking technique of gigantic coin's has been mentioned in any text.

The origin of nisar coin's is explained as also probable rationale behind nisar coin's. This is the first time such facts have been brought to public notice.

The symbolism behind Portrait coin's as well as Jahangir's rebellion as Prince Salim is outlined. Several misconceptions are placed to rest. The Mughal Emperors role of dispensing justice is explained. The symbolism behind the sun, throne, hand on book/railing, ball/globe in hand, wine & wine cup seen on Portrait coin's is dealt in detail. This is the first time such facts are brought in print.

The chapter on Zodiac coin's outlines the basis and rationale that inspired Jahangir to strike these remarkable coin's. The scarcity of Aquarius Zodiac Mohur is explained, a topic untouched by both R.B. Whitehead and S.H. Hodivala. No other text, incl Jahangir's own autobiography, explains the inspiration or motivation that led Jahangir to strike Zodiac coin's. This is the first time such an analysis is published in any book.
