Aanvullende informatie

Ahmad Shah Bahadur inherited the Mughal throne in 1748 following the assassination of his father Muhammad Shah, acceding to an empire already hollowed out by Nader Shah's 1739 sack of Delhi. His six-year reign was dominated by the rising Maratha Confederacy and accelerating provincial fragmentation, with the Rohilla Afghans effectively controlling the Bareilly region where this coin was struck. The Bareli mint operated under those fractious conditions — nominally imperial, practically regional.

Ahmad Shah was deposed and blinded in 1754 by the vizier Imad-ul-Mulk, ending coinage in his name.
