Weight varies 10.70-11.60 gramsInteresting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted 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, Jiyaji Rao," in Urdu script on one side, and the date "1225" (1810 CE) on the other. This coin is a rare example of a silver rupee coin minted by a princely state during the Mughal era, and its design reflects the blending of Mughal and regional styles.
