Nasir al-Din Muhammad Humayun, second Mughal emperor (r. 1530–1540 CE, 1555–1556 CE), faced early defeats but later reclaimed his throne. His reign saw artistic and architectural developments. Humayun’s coinage includes copper falus minted at regional mints like Jaunpur. This rare 942 AH coin reflects Mughal authority in Jaunpur during his brief return, marking imperial presence through Islamic calligraphy and regional minting.
