An extremely rare piece of Jade pedant surrounded with 18k gold , inscribed with famous mark of British Indian company 17th Century. This beautiful pendant was designed and marked for famous person of British Indian company ceo Mr.Boulton Sahib . The art piece engraved and gifted by Sikh governor in late 17th Century after British invaded the India and occupied east India defeating Mughal. Mr.Boulton Boulton September 1728 – 17 August 1809 was an English manufacturer and business partner of Scottish engineer James Watt. In the final quarter of the 18th century, the partnership installed hundreds of Boulton & Watt steam engines, which were a great advance on the state of the art, making possible the mechanization of factories and mills. Boulton applied modern techniques to the minting of coins, striking millions of pieces for Britain and other countries, and supplying the Royal Mint with up-to-date equipment. Born in Birmingham, he was the son of a Birmingham manufacturer of small metal products who died when Boulton was 31 Boulton founded the Soho Mint, to which he soon adapted steam power. He sought to improve the poor state of Britain's coinage, and after several years of effort obtained a contract in 1797 to produce the first British copper coinage in a quarter century. His "cartwheel" pieces were well-designed and difficult to counterfeit, and included the first striking of the large copper British penny, which continued to be coined until decimalisation in 1971. He retired in 1800, though continuing to run his mint, and died in 1809. His image appears alongside James Watt on the Bank of England's new Series f £50 note. Boulton had turned his attention to coinage in the mid-1780s; they were just another small metal product like those he manufactured. The firm had little immediate success getting a license to strike British coins, but was soon engaged in striking coins for the British East India Company for use in India.
