Step back in time to the height of the Maratha Empire with this captivating Copper Paisa, issued during the 17th to 18th centuries AD. Categorized under miscellaneous and un-attributed issues, this fascinating numismatic piece is officially referenced as Type T22 in the seminal work *Maratha Mints & Coinage* by Maheshwari and Wiggins. The obverse features a striking and bold 'Trishul' (trident) counter-strike, a powerful symbol of sovereign authority and religious devotion, while the reverse remains traditionally uniface. Crafted from solid copper and weighing 8.80 grams with dimensions of approximately 19.17 by 21.91 mm, this specimen is preserved in an impressive Very Fine condition, showing pleasing details given its age and circulation. Its rare status makes it a coveted acquisition for serious numismatists specializing in Indian feudal coinages, Maratha history, or counter-stamped currency. Owning this tangible piece of Maratha heritage allows collectors to hold a direct link to the turbulent and glorious military era that shaped modern Indian history.
