Item Specification
Mughals, Shah Alam II (1759-1806), Silver Rupee, Akbarabad Mustaqir-ul-Khilafat, AH 1198/ RY 26, 10.84g, 23.11mm, KM#512
Obv: Sikka Zad Bar Haft Kishwar Sayaye Fazle Ilah, Hami-e-Deen Muhammad, Shah Alam Badshah (Struck Coin in the Seven Climes, the Shadow of the Divine Favour, The Defender of Faith, Muhammad Shah Alam, Emperor); AH1198 (1784 AD)
Rev: Zarb Mustaqir-ul-Khilafat Akbarabad Sanat 25 Julus Manus Maimanat [Struck at the Abode of the Caliphate Akbarabad (in) Year 25 (of his) Reign Associated With Prosperity]
The coin also has a delightful fish as the mint mark on Reverse.
Struck under the authority of Muhammad Beg Hamadani, technically a vizier under Shah Alam II, but in effect quasi-independent with some relationship to the Marathas. He added the fish on the reverse, a symbol continued by the subsequent Maratha rulers after Hamadani's defeat in AH1198 (1785).
