This exceptional copper paisa represents a fascinating piece of numismatic history from the Gwalior State, minted during the prosperous 17th-18th century AD period. Struck at the Jawad Mint, this coin showcases distinctive iconography with a fish and scimitar depicted on the obverse, while the reverse displays intricate period designs characteristic of regional Indian coinage. Weighing 8.02 grams and measuring 17.92mm in diameter, this specimen exhibits a Very Fine condition, reflecting careful preservation over centuries.

Its rarity classification and unlisted status enhance both its historical importance and investment potential. The coin's authentic patina and wear patterns confirm its genuineness and age, making it a prized addition to any collection. --- #
