| Reverse description | Irregular hammered copper flan displaying an Arabic legend in the field, partially legible due to the characteristic striking weakness and heavy wear associated with early Akbari dam coinage. The inscription, struck in Naskh script, likely bears the regnal year in Hijri notation and possibly a mint name, though both are obscured by patination and flan irregularities. The surface exhibits green and brown copper patina consistent with extended circulation and burial. The thick, domed planchet reflects standard hammered technique of Mughal copper issues of the mid-sixteenth century. |
