This exceptional copper Anna represents a remarkable piece of Indian numismatic history from the Bhopal State during the reign of Shah Jahan Begam (1868-1901 AD). Minted in the late 19th century under the Begam's progressive rule, this heavy-weight denomination coin carries significant historical value, bearing the complete Islamic date AH1296 and the mint mark "Zarb Bhopal Sanah" on its reverse. Weighing an impressive 30.34 grams with a diameter of 24.34mm, this copper issue (KM Y6) stands out as an extremely rare heavy-weight variant, making it highly coveted among serious collectors of Indian princely state coinage. Shah Jahan Begam was one of India's most influential female rulers, and coins issued during her reign reflect the cultural and economic sophistication of Bhopal State during that era. In Very Fine condition, this piece displays excellent definition despite its age, with clear inscriptions and well-preserved details. The rarity factor is substantially elevated by its heavy-weight classification, as few examples have survived in such condition. This coin serves as both an outstanding investment piece and a tangible connection to a fascinating chapter of Indian history, ideal for specialists in Indian princely state coins and serious numismatists seeking authentic, museum-quality pieces. #
