Alamgir II, Shahjahanabad mint. 1170AH/Ry4. Heavy paisa. 16.4gms. Fish mark.

The Ry4 paisa of Shahjahanabad comes in 2 types- Normal weight of 13-14gms and one heavy with 16-17gms. The heavy ones continue till ry2 of Shah Alam II including all issues of Shah Jahan III. The heavy standard was introduced likely after the invasion of Ahmed Shah Durrani during the first occupation of Delhi.
