Very Fine, Very Rare.
Kararabad' was the Islamicate name of Karad, located in Satara district of Maharashtra. A mint was operational here very sporadically in early 18th century and extremely rare issues in the name of Shah Alam Bahadur, Jahandar Shah and Farrukhsiyar are known. They were struck, in all likelihood, by Yasin Khan, one of the last Mughal commandants in the area before the Marathas under Shahu took over.
