| Beschrijving voorzijde | Hammered copper flan bearing a Mughal-style legend in Persian-Nastaliq script arranged across the field in multiple lines, issued in the name of Mughal emperor Muhammad Akbar II (r. 1806–1837) as the nominal suzerain. The design follows the traditional Mughal coinage format adopted by the Bundi state under ruler Bishan Singh (r. 1804–1821), with floral or foliate decorative elements visible in the upper segment of the field. The strike is typical of provincial hammered coinage, with uneven flan edges and moderately bold relief on the central legends. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Bundi's coinage during this period was struck under the nominal authority of the Mughal emperor Muhammad Akbar II, whose name appears as a feudal courtesy long after the Mughals had lost any practical power over Rajputana. The actual local authority was Rao Raja Bishen Singh, who ruled Bundi from 1773 to 1821 and navigated the state through the turbulent transition to British paramountcy, signing a subsidiary alliance with the East India Company in 1818.
The retained Mughal imperial name on Bundi copper was a convention rather than a political reality — Akbar II himself was by this point a pensioner of the Company at Delhi.
