| Reversbeschreibung | The reverse field is divided horizontally into two registers by a bold raised bar. The upper register bears a Persian inscription denoting the denomination, while the lower register carries the equivalent legend in Devanagari script, together identifying the coin as one pice of the Sika (Company) currency. The bold, raised lettering in Nastaliq and Devanagari scripts fills the circular field to the rims, with minimal decorative elements, consistent with the utilitarian character of Bengal Presidency copper coinage of the early nineteenth century. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Bengal Presidency coinage of this period was issued under the authority of the East India Company, which had wrested control of Bengal's revenue and administration following the Battle of Plassey in 1757. Shah Alam II, the Mughal emperor whose name this coin formally invokes, had been effectively a pensioner of the Company since the late eighteenth century — his name on the coinage was a political fiction maintained for legitimacy, not a reflection of any actual authority he held. He had died in 1806, meaning this coin was struck a decade or more after the emperor it nominally honors was already in his grave.
