Mint Katak, KM#364.28Interesting fact
The Jahandar Shah (Katak) Rupee coin from the Mughal Empire (India) was issued during a time of great turmoil and political instability. The coin was minted in 1712-1713, during the reign of Jahandar Shah, who was the son of the previous emperor, Bahadur Shah I. However, Jahandar Shah's rule was short-lived and marked the beginning of a period of decline for the Mughal Empire. Despite this, the coin remains a valuable piece of history and a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the Mughal Empire.
