    Description

    This undated silver coin is a Ga-den tangka, widely considered the most beautiful of all Tibetan money. Originally struck circa 1850, these were issued with slight variations until 1948, a run encompassing the reign of the 12
    th
    through 14th Dalai Lamas. The basic design was inspired by Nepalese coins that were themselves influenced by Indian silver rupees. This coin has been authenticated and encapsulated by Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC) and we unconditionally guarantee its authenticity.
