| Additional information |
Shah Alam Bahadur's reign lasted just under four years — a brief, contested interlude following Aurangzeb's death in 1707, when three of his sons fought a succession war resolved at the Battle of Jajau. Bahadur Shah, as he was also known, reversed many of his father's harsher policies toward the Rajputs and Marathas, and his short reign is characterized more by attempted reconciliation than consolidation.
Jahangirnagar — present-day Dhaka — operated as a significant provincial mint for the Bengal subah. The .9 suffix in the KM reference distinguishes this mint's output within a series struck simultaneously across dozens of Mughal minting centers.
