Lahore Mint.

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. This coin was minted in Lahore in 1124 AH (1712 AD), which was during Jahandar Shah's brief reign of 11 months. Despite his short reign, Jahandar Shah's coins are considered rare and highly sought after by collectors due to their historical significance.
