Obverse description Central field filled with multi-line Nagari or Persian-script legend referencing Emperor Edward VII, arranged in flowing cursive lines across the flan. The inscription is densely packed within the coin's field, characteristic of the Mughal-derived epigraphic style employed by Jodhpur State issues of this period. No portrait effigy appears; the design is entirely typographic, with the imperial dedication occupying the full face of the coin.
