| Aanvullende informatie |
Shah Alam II issued this rupee during one of the most turbulent successions in Mughal history — he had not yet formally ascended the throne in Delhi when this piece was struck at Sironj, having fled his father Alamgir II's court after a political rupture with the wazir Imad-ul-Mulk. The Sironj mint, operating under Maratha-controlled Indore as a feudatory issue, used the Mughal imperial name as a matter of commercial necessity; currency bearing a recognized imperial title circulated far more freely than purely regional issues. By 1759, actual Mughal authority over such mints was largely nominal.
