This exceptional Copper Paisa represents a significant piece of Indian numismatic history from the Gwalior State during the reign of Daulat Rao (1794-1827 AD). Minted at the prestigious Dar-ul-Fath Ujjain facility, this coin bears Persian inscriptions and the commemorative “Sanah Julus” (accession year) designation, reflecting the Islamic influence on regional coinage of the era.

Weighing 18.50 grams with a diameter of 20.01mm, this copper denomination showcases the metallurgical standards of early 19th-century Indian states. What makes this piece particularly valuable to collectors is its unlisted status—it does not appear in standard catalogues like Krause-Mishler, making it an undocumented rarity in numismatic records. Graded in Extremely Fine condition, the coin displays excellent preservation with minimal wear, retaining sharp details of its inscriptions and mint marks.

The Gwalior State coinage is highly sought after by specialists in Marathi and Central Indian numismatics. This paisa exemplifies the transitional period when regional rulers maintained their own mints while navigating British colonial influence. For serious collectors and historians, this unlisted variant offers both historical authenticity and investment potential, representing a rare opportunity to acquire an unrecorded die variety from this important princely state.
