附加信息	1739 was the year Nadir Shah of Persia sacked Delhi, massacred tens of thousands of its inhabitants, and carried off the Peacock Throne — effectively ending any meaningful Mughal authority over the subcontinent. Coins struck in Muhammad Shah's name at peripheral mints like Arcot continued regardless, the fiction of imperial sovereignty maintained in metal long after it had collapsed in practice. The Nawabs of Arcot operated with increasing autonomy throughout this period, their relationship with both the Mughal court and the rising European trading companies shifting constantly. Striking in the emperor's name was commercial and diplomatic habit as much as anything else.
