Nepalese mohar

The mohar was the currency of the Kingdom of Nepal from the second half of the 17th century until 1932.

Silver and gold mohars were issued, each subdivided into 128 dams.

The values of the copper, silver and gold coinages relative to one another were not fixed until 1903.

In that year, the silver mohar became the standard currency, divided into 50 paisa.

The gold coinage continued to be issued after the introduction of the rupee until 1950.
