Additional information

Bhakkar, a fortress-island in the Indus River, served as one of Akbar's key mints in the northwestern territories following the consolidation of Sindh under Mughal control in the 1570s. Production from this mint was strategically significant — Bhakkar sat astride the principal overland and river routes connecting the Punjab to the lower Indus valley, and coinage struck here circulated heavily among merchants and military payrolls operating along that corridor.

The KM#102.2 designation distinguishes this by mint attribution. Bhakkar-mint mohurs from this period are considerably scarcer than contemporary Agra or Lahore output.
