This exceptional copper 2/3 Falus coin represents a significant piece of Indian numismatic history from the Ahmadnagar Sultanate during the reign of Murtada Nizam Shah II (1600-1610 AD). Minted in the prosperous city of Parenda, this rare denomination showcases the sophisticated coinage system of the Deccan sultanates during the early Mughal era.

The coin features inscriptions honoring “Murtada Nizam Shah bin Shah Ali” on the obverse, while the reverse bears the mint mark and date formula typical of sultanate coinage. Weighing 10.10 grams and measuring 17.61mm in diameter, this well-preserved specimen displays excellent detail in its Very Fine condition, making it an authentic window into 17th-century South Indian history.

Collectors value this piece for its rarity, historical significance, and the scarcity of Ahmadnagar sultanate coins in the numismatic market. The Parenda mint variant adds particular appeal to serious collectors of Indian medieval coinage. This authenticated rare mint coin serves as both an investment-grade collectible and a tangible artifact of a fascinating sultanate that played a crucial role in Deccan politics before succumbing to Mughal expansion.
