| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is divided by a horizontal line into two registers in the standard Mughal rupee format. The upper register displays the regnal year (jalus) numeral — here visibly reading '25 jalus' — alongside the hijri date. The lower register contains the mint name 'Patna' (Azimabad) in Arabic script. The legends are struck in bold nasta'liq script, characteristic of the Patna mint issues of Aurangzeb, with the field otherwise plain. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Aurangzeb's rupees from the Patna mint reflect the administrative importance of that city as the commercial gateway to Bengal and Bihar — one of the empire's most productive revenue territories. His nearly 49-year reign produced an enormous volume of coinage, but individual mint-year combinations remain surprisingly specific, as each regnal year required fresh die preparation under the imperial dating system.
Patna itself sat at the center of the saltpeter trade, a commodity the Mughals controlled and the European trading companies desperately needed for gunpowder production.
