Copper
Aurangzeb (1658-1707 AD), anonymous Copper Dam struck to the light weight standard, Ahmadabad Mint, AH 1077/RY (6), 13.79g.
Very Fine, Rare.
In the decade after Aurangzeb's accession, the standard for copper Dams was downgraded from 20 gm to a lighter standard. This coin is unusual in many ways - unlike most other coins of the anonymous type, it has legends inscribed in Nastaliq; it also has the mint-name written in rather curious manner with the locative suffix 'abad' separated from 'Ahmed' to the top line.
