背面描述 The reverse displays a three-line Arabic legend in Naskh script arranged horizontally across the field, reading 'Julus / Maimanat Manus / Surat' (Accession of auspicious omen / Surat), identifying the mint city of Surat on the western coast of India. The inscription is struck in bold relief on an undecorated field, with the flan showing the irregular, slightly domed profile typical of hammered Mughal copper dam issues. The surface exhibits a characteristic green and brown patina consistent with prolonged circulation and age.

附加信息

Aurangzeb's reign of nearly fifty years was the longest of any Mughal emperor, yet copper dams from his rule are considerably scarcer than those of his predecessors. The dam denomination was already in slow decline by the mid-17th century, increasingly displaced in everyday transactions by the smaller paisa, and Surat's mint prioritized the silver rupee trade servicing the enormously lucrative port commerce with the Arabian Peninsula, Persia, and the East India Company factors operating from the city.

Surat remained one of the empire's wealthiest mints precisely because of that port traffic — which makes the relative neglect of its copper output all the more telling about how marginal the dam had become by Aurangzeb's later decades.
