This coin comes from a period in India known as the Bengal Presidency. In 1765 emperor Shah Alam gave some possessions in Bengal to the British East India Company, starting the presidency. This coin comes from Shah Alam's successor, Shah Alam II.
There is a distinguishing feature of a fork, trident, or trisul on this coin.
shah Alam II, was the sixteenth Mughal Emperor and the son of Alamgir II. Shah Alam II became the emperor of a crumbling Mughal empire. His power was so depleted during his reign that it led to a saying in the Persian language, Sultanat-e-Shah Alam, Az Dilli ta Palam, meaning, 'The kingdom of Shah Alam is from Delhi to Palam', Palam being a suburb of Delhi.[1][2]
