Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Burhan Nizam Shah III, who was the last ruler of the Ahmadnagar Sultanate. He ruled from 1610 to 1631 and was known for his military campaigns against the neighboring kingdoms and his efforts to promote trade and commerce within his kingdom. The coin itself is made of copper and weighs 9.8 grams, which was a significant weight for a coin during that time period.
