History

Medak was a local mint run during the chaos resulting out of succession disputes in the court of the Niẕam in the 1750s. The coins have a different couplet for Ālamgīr II, found only on Dilshadābād and Imtiyāzgarh mints apart from Medak, which resonates with the couplet of Aurangzeb, the emperor's forefather and namesake. Issued under the authority of Niẕam of Ḥyderābād.
