This is an example of the second and last of the very rare pictorial coinage of Akbar with the Ilahi date 50, the last year of his reign. The bird on the obverse has usually been described as a duck, but it is far more likely to have been the royal game bird, the hubayra. This unfortunate bird has been commonly hunted throughout history up until today, and is now close to extinction in the wild. In the west it is known as the great bustard.
