| Reversbeschreibung | The reverse carries a multi-line Persian legend in Nastaliq script identifying the mint and regnal year, reading 'Zarb Azimabad Sanat [RY] Julus Maimanat Manus,' meaning 'Struck at Azimabad in the [nth] year of his prosperous reign.' The numeral '١٠' (10), denoting the 10th regnal year of Shah Alam II, appears prominently in the lower central field alongside a cluster of pellets serving as a mint or die mark. The bold, deeply struck calligraphy and the irregular flan are characteristic of the hammered coinage produced at the Azimabad (Patna) mint during the Bengal Presidency period. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Shah Alam II never actually controlled Bengal — he was a Mughal emperor in name increasingly dependent on the East India Company after his defeat at Buxar in 1764. The Bengal Presidency struck rupees in his name as a political convenience, preserving Mughal monetary forms to avoid disrupting local trade networks that ran on recognizable imperial coinage. The fiction of Mughal authority was commercially useful long after the military reality had collapsed.
KM#19 is attributed to the Murshidabad mint. The regnal year frozen on these pieces does not correspond to actual annual production — the same year was repeated across multiple striking cycles, a deliberate practice that has complicated precise dating ever since.
