Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Mahmud Shah II, who was the last ruler of the Sultanate of Malwa before it was annexed by the Mughal Empire. Despite being a small coin made of copper, it still holds significant historical value as a symbol of the Sultanate's economy and monetary system during that time period.
