The conquest of Bengal was completed only after the rebellion of the Baro-Bhuiyan zamindars led by Isa Khan was quelled in 1599. The style and calligraphy of this coin suggests it was struck in Eastern Bengal, as it is very close to the very rare issues of Dhaka mint. The occurrence of Rashidoon caliphs appended with title 'Hazrat' is also unique.
