1 Rupee - Akbar Karrah - Kada mint

Akbar's early coinage is among the most administratively revealing in Mughal numismatics. The Kada mint — also rendered Karrah — operated in the Allahabad region during a period when Akbar was still consolidating authority over the middle Gangetic plain, and coins struck there reflect a fiscal infrastructure being assembled on the move. Karrah itself would later become administratively significant during the revenue experiments of the 1570s, but in 1562–63 it functioned primarily as a regional minting point serving military and commercial demand during active campaigning.
