History

See Nelson Wright

Najībābād was a Rohilla mint until 1774 when the Nawāb Wazir of Awadh took the town. The town passed to the British in 1801 and the mint may have continued operations until 1805, although no evidence for this exists in the records and no coins can be attributed to this mint during the time following British acquisition (see Bengal Presidency, Transitional mints)
