Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Jahandar Shah, who was the son of Bahadur Shah I 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 designs and calligraphy. The 1 Rupee coin from his reign, such as the one , is particularly notable for its use of silver and its relatively high weight of 11.32 grams, making it a valuable and sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
