This exceptional copper 1/4 Paisa (Akhtar) represents a significant piece of Indian numismatic history from the Mysore Kingdom under the visionary rule of Tipu Sultan. Minted between 1787-1799 AD at the prestigious Farrukhyab Hisar Mint, this coin showcases the elephant—a symbol of royal power and prosperity—walking rightward on the obverse, with the mint name elegantly inscribed on the reverse. Weighing 2.56 grams and catalogued as KM61.3, this copper denomination is remarkably scarce and highly sought after by serious collectors. Tipu Sultan's coinage is historically significant, representing a period of military innovation and administrative reform in South India. The Very Fine condition preserves excellent detail despite centuries of circulation, making it an outstanding example of its type. This rarity appeals to historians, numismatists, and Indian history enthusiasts who recognize its dual value—both as a tangible artifact of an important historical period and as a legitimate investment-grade collectible. The combination of authentic age, historical significance, limited mintage, and superior condition makes this piece a prized addition to any serious collection. #
