Sher Shah Suri issued a coin of silver called Rupiya. The silver coin weighed 178 grams and the Mughal rulers continued to use it as their currency.
The term rupiya is derived from two Sanskrit terms rupya and rupa. The term ‘rupya’ means silver coin while the term ‘rupa’ means beautiful form.
The present day Indian currency rupee is derived from the term rupiya.
