Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Jahandar Shah, who was the son of Aurangzeb and the last Mughal Emperor to issue coins in his own name. Despite his short reign of just three years, Jahandar Shah's coins are considered to be some of the finest examples of Mughal coinage, with intricate calligraphy and detailed minting. This particular coin, with its silver content and unique design, is a rare and valuable example of Mughal currency from that time period.
