Own a piece of Indian princely state history with this exquisite 1 Rupee silver coin from the Hyderabad Nizam’s reign. Minted between 1912-1925 (Islamic calendar 1330-1343) under the rule of Mir Osman Ali Khan, the seventh Nizam of Hyderabad, this coin represents a fascinating era when princely states maintained their own currencies before Indian independence in 1950.

Crafted from 81.8% pure silver, this 11.178-gram coin features the iconic Charminar (Four Minarets) gateway on the obverse—the most recognizable symbol of Hyderabad—alongside traditional Urdu inscriptions honoring the Nizam’s reign. The reverse displays the denomination and legendary inscription “Julus Maimanat Manus Zarb Farkhanda Bunyad” (Auspicious Reign, Royal Mint, Blessed Foundation), affirming Hyderabad’s sovereignty.

This milled coin exemplifies numismatic artistry from India’s pre-independence period, making it highly sought-after by collectors of Indian coins, Islamic numismatics, and historical currency enthusiasts. Each specimen tells the story of a magnificent princely state and its enlightened ruler, representing a rare window into India’s complex colonial and post-colonial monetary history.
