This exceptional Copper Paisa represents a fascinating piece of Indian numismatic history from the Orchha State during the reign of Maharaja Vikramjit Mahendra (1796-1817 AD). Struck during the AH1211-1233 period, this scarce heavy-type coin bears the prestigious legend of Shah Alam II on the obverse, reflecting the complex political dynamics of late 18th-century India when regional rulers acknowledged Mughal sovereignty. The coin weighs 16.38 grams with a diameter of 21.04mm, featuring intricate Persian inscriptions including "Maimanat Sanah Julus" on the reverse—denoting the year of accession. Cataloged as KM # C 25, this particular specimen demonstrates the skilled metalwork characteristic of Orchha's mint, combining both historical and artistic significance. In Very Fine condition, this coin showcases excellent detail preservation with minimal wear, making it highly desirable for serious collectors. The rarity of this type, combined with its well-documented provenance and grading, positions it as both a valuable investment and a tangible connection to India's princely state era. Perfect for collectors focused on regional Indian coinage, Mughal-period numismatics, or those seeking authentic historical artifacts from this transformative period. --- #
