Note: In 1774, the seat of the Rohillas, Najibabad, was lost to Awadh. Consequently, the seat of Najib Khan's family was relocated to Ghausgarh, a fortress built by Najib Khan in 1765. Coins dated 1188/16 RY featuring the Awadh mint mark (a fish) to the right of the RY are known. A parallel series of coins from the 'Najibabad' mint, bearing the Rohillas' Katar mint mark, also exists. It is suggested that these coins were likely struck by the Rohillas at their fort in Ghausgarh.

Notably, the date and mint mark on this coin are of an unlisted type in the KM catalog.
