| Beschrijving voorzijde | Crudely struck hammered copper flan bearing an indistinct device in the central field, consistent with the informal production typical of Carnatic cash coinage. The surface is heavily granular with an irregular, somewhat rounded flan edge characteristic of hand-struck issues. The design elements are compressed and difficult to resolve, reflecting the low-denomination utilitarian nature of the piece. No legible legend is present on this side. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Nawabs of the Carnatic occupied an increasingly uncomfortable position through the 18th century — nominally Mughal vassals, effectively clients of the British East India Company after Clive's interventions, and perpetually contested by the French through Dupleix's campaigns in the Deccan. Small copper cash of this type circulated through that entire turbulent period, spanning the tenures of multiple nawabs from Saadatullah Khan through to the final years before the British formally abolished the nawabdom in 1801 following Muhammad Ali Khan's death and the lapsing of the subsidiary alliance.
