Bengal Presidency, Nawabs of Bengal, Nawab Siraj-ud-Daulah (1756-1757 AD), gold mohur, Azimabad (Patna) mint, RY 3, in the name of Alamgir II, trident mint-mark on reverse, 11.06g.

Extremely fine, Extremely rare.

Nawab Siraj-ud-Daulah, the last independent ruler of Bengal, reigned from April 1756 to June 1757, a brief but tumultuous period that ended with British ascendancy in India. Born in 1733, he succeeded his grandfather Alivardi Khan, who had been Deputy Governor of Bihar, including Azimabad (modern Patna), a key regional center tied to Siraj's family legacy. Siraj's rule was marked by internal rivalries and conflict with the British East India Company, culminating in his defeat at the Battle of Plassey in 1757, orchestrated by betrayal from his commander Mir Jafar. After fleeing toward Azimabad to regroup, he was captured and executed on July 2, 1757, in Murshidabad.

The gold mohur of Siraj-ud-Daulah, minted in Azimabad (Patna) in the name of Mughal Emperor Alamgir II (r. 1754–1759), is a significant artifact from this period. Azimabad, a key administrative and economic center, was one of Bengal's prominent mints. This coin, struck during Siraj's reign, reflects the Nawabs' continued formal submission to Mughal sovereignty despite their practical autonomy. Its historical importance lies in its representation of a transitional moment: minted just before Plassey, it symbolizes the waning Mughal era and the cusp of British colonial rule.
