| Obverse lettering | Sikka Mubarak Badshah Ghazi (Translation: Coin of Glorious Emperor Ghazi (Shah Alam)) |
| Reverse description | Crude imitative Persian legend occupies the field in multiple lines, accompanied by a secondary floral symbol rendered in the same simplified provincial style as the obverse. The inscription references the regnal year of the Mughal emperor Shah Alam II, following the standard Mughal dating formula. The die work is irregular and shallow, consistent with locally produced hammered imitative coinage. The flan is irregular in shape, typical of hand-cut gold planchets used in princely state issues of this type. |
