This exceptional copper pie represents a significant piece of Bengal Presidency numismatic history under Shah Alam II’s reign (1759-1806). Struck during a pivotal period of Indian coinage, this fractional denomination coin features the emperor’s inscription on the obverse and a distinctive trident mint mark on the reverse, indicating its origin from a specific mint facility of the era.

Weighing merely 1.06 grams and measuring 10.25mm in diameter, this diminutive falus exemplifies the intricate metalwork of 18th-century Bengal coinage. What sets this piece apart is its status as an un-reported variety—a newly discovered numismatic treasure that hasn’t been previously documented in standard references. This makes it particularly valuable to serious collectors and historians seeking rare variants.

In Very Fine condition despite its age, the coin exhibits excellent preservation for a circulated piece, with clear legends and the trident mark remaining legible. Its rarity, combined with historical significance and exceptional scarcity of this specific fractional denomination, makes it a compelling acquisition for Indian numismatic enthusiasts and those specializing in Mughal-era coinage. An investment-grade specimen for dedicated collectors.
