| Additional information |
Bijay Singh ruled Jodhpur from 1724 to 1793, one of the longest reigns among the Marwar chiefs, and his coinage reflects the administrative complexity of managing multiple active mints across his territory. The Nagor mint — Dar-ul-Barkat, "abode of blessing" — had been a significant issuing center since the Mughal period, and Jodhpur's use of it signals the continuing political weight of that city even as Maratha pressure reshaped power across Rajputana during the 1750s.
The narrow four-year window of this type, 1758–1761, likely corresponds to a specific administrative or political arrangement governing mint operation rather than the full span of Bijay Singh's authority over Nagor.
