Comment
Ruler: Ahmad Shah BahadurInteresting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Ahmad Shah Bahadur, who was the last Mughal emperor to issue coins in his own name. This coin, which was minted in Ahmadabad between 1748 and 1754, features an inscription in Persian that reads "Ahmad Shah Bahadur, Emperor of the Mughal Empire" on one side, and an image of a lion on the other. The lion was a symbol of the Mughal Empire and represented the power and strength of the emperor. The coin was made of silver and weighed 11.35 grams, making it a valuable and highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists today.
