Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Shah Alam II, who was the Mughal Emperor at the time. The coin features the emperor's name and title, "Shah Alam II, Anwala," in Urdu script on one side, and the date "1176" (1763 CE) on the other. This coin was part of the standard circulation currency used in the Princely state of Rohilkhand, which was one of the many princely states that existed in India during the Mughal era.
