| Additional information |
Ahmad Shah Durrani founded the Durrani Empire in 1747 after the assassination of Nader Shah, and the Dera mint — operating at Dera Ghazi Khan or Dera Ismail Khan, the attribution remains debated among specialists — was one of several provincial mints brought under Durrani control as the empire expanded across the subcontinent. The long date range of 1754–1773 reflects continuous provincial production rather than a single issue, meaning examples can vary meaningfully in die quality and strike character depending on when within that window they were produced.
