1 Rupee - Shah Alam II Mughal Style

Kishangarh's coinage during the late 18th century operated under the fiction of Mughal suzerainty long after that authority had effectively collapsed. Shah Alam II, blind since 1788 following the brutal attack by Ghulam Qadir, was by this point a pensioner of whatever power happened to control Delhi — first the Marathas, later the British. Kishangarh continued issuing rupees in his name as a political formality, a practice common among Rajput states navigating the chaos of post-Panipat northern India.

The C#10.2b designation distinguishes this by die variety within the broader Kishangarh Shah Alam series.
