| Beschrijving voorzijde | Crude hammered copper flan displaying a central cartouche or oval device within which Arabic script legends appear in low relief. The design is characteristic of mid-18th century Indian princely state coinage, with the central motif rendered in a roughly circular incuse frame. The surrounding field is uneven and irregular, consistent with the primitive striking technique employed at local mints of the period. Patina of brown copper oxide with areas of green verdigris is evident across the surface. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Shah Jahan III's reign as Mughal emperor lasted roughly a year — installed and then deposed by the Marathas in 1759–60 — making any coinage struck in his name exceptionally short-lived by imperial reckoning. Bhavnagar, a Gohil Rajput state on the Saurashtra coast, was formally issuing copper in his name during precisely this window of political instability, when Maratha power was cresting just before Panipat.
The Zeno catalogue listing for this type remains one of the few documented references, reflecting how thinly recorded Bhavnagar's early copper series still is.
