The Mint at Amritsar issued parallel series of coins from VS1841, which carries the legend as on the seal of Banda Singh Bahadur
"Deg tegh o Fath Nusrat Be-Dirang; Yaft az Nanak Guru Gobind Singh"
These coins are fairly scarce than the issues with the Nanakshahi legend. For the purpose of differentiation of the legends, this series is called the Gobindshahi coins.  The coins under 01.18.04, carry additional words which have not yet been fully explained, like rabi, tani. These coins also carry regnal years, which could help in linking these with the individual Misls.
