Note: The Mughal emperor Aurangzeb captured Adoni Fort in 1688. In Adoni, Siddi Masud ruled as a powerful Hindu king. In order to consolidate his power over the Deccan region, Aurangzeb set out to expand his empire. Adoni&#39;s strategic importance and resource availability made it an ideal target.

A large Mughal army under trusted generals was sent by Aurangzeb to fight against Siddi Masud. Mughals used various tactics to weaken the defenders of Adoni during the siege. A number of trenches were constructed, supply lines were cut off, and cannons were fired at the fort. As a result of months of fighting, Siddi Masud&#39;s forces weakened, which led to negotiations and his surrender.

Siddi Masud, the regent of Sultan Sikandar, surrendered to the Mughals in 1688 and entered the service of Aurangzeb. Aurangzeb renamed Adoni as Imtiyazgarh during the course of his Deccan campaign, thereby expanding the reach and influence of the Mughals in the region.

Numismatically, the capture and subsequent renaming of Adoni had an impact as well. Due to the swift name change, rupee coins bearing the name Adoni have become extremely rare. In addition to this coin without an epithet, there are a few coins that bear the epithet&nbsp;Dar us Zafar Qila Adoni. The historic significance of these changes adds to their value and appeal among collectors.
