Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Aurangzeb, who was the last powerful Mughal emperor. He ruled from 1658 to 1707 and his reign saw the expansion of the Mughal Empire, as well as the construction of many architectural marvels, including the Taj Mahal. The coin's design and inscriptions reflect the cultural and religious influences of the time, and its silver content makes it a valuable collector's item for numismatists.
