Comment
Mint mark: Variety IInteresting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Nasir-ud-Din Haidar, who was the ruler of the Kingdom of Awadh from 1827 to 1837. During his reign, he took several measures to improve the economy and administration of the kingdom, which included the introduction of new coinage. This coin, which was made of silver and weighed 11.10 grams, was part of that effort and was widely used in the kingdom during that time.
