Beschrijving voorzijde The obverse field is entirely occupied by a two-line Persian couplet in bold, flowing Nasta'liq script, proclaiming the royal authority of Muhammad Ali Shah. The legend reads: 'He struck coin on silver and gold like the sun and moon / Muhammad Ali Shah, sovereign of the age, by the grace of God.' The calligraphy is deeply struck in high relief, characteristic of hammered Awadh gold coinage, with the script extending nearly to the milled border that encircles the coin. The field shows the slightly irregular, textured surface typical of hand-struck issues of this period.

Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse displays a four-line Arabic and Persian legend in Nasta'liq script arranged across the field, giving the mint name Banaras, the regnal year in Hijri numerals (1253 AH), and the auspicious accession formula. The uppermost line reads 'Zarb Banaras' (Struck at Banaras), followed by 'Sana 1253' (Year 1253), then 'Julus Maimanat Manus' (the auspicious accession), and finally 'Maimanat.' The legends are deeply engraved in high relief with the characteristic bold strokes of Awadh hammered gold coinage, surrounded by a milled border. The slightly irregular flan and textured field reflect the hand-struck nature of this provincial mint issue.
