Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Ahmad Shah Paisa coin is that it was issued during a time of great turmoil in the Maratha Empire. The empire was facing challenges from the British East India Company, and the coin's minting was likely a response to the need for a stable currency during this period. Despite the challenges, the coin remains a valuable piece of history and a testament to the resilience of the Maratha people.
