LONDON — A dagger used by the emperor who built the Taj Mahal sold Thursday for $3.3 million. The dagger once belonged to 17th-century Mogul emperor Shah Jahan, whose empire spanned the entire Indian subcontinent and what is now Afghanistan, Bonhams auctioneers said.
Dates inscribed on the curved-tip blade suggest it was made in 1630 for the emperor’s 39th birthday.
