Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Nasir Al-Din Mahmud Shah III, who was the last ruler of the Gujarat Sultanate before it was annexed by the Mughal Empire. Despite being a standard circulation coin, it is considered a rare and valuable collector's item due to its historical significance and the fact that it is made of copper, which was a valuable material at the time.
