| Beschrijving voorzijde | Hammered gold field bearing a Persian or Nagari legend in multiple lines, characteristic of the regal style issued under British suzerainty during the reign of George VI. The inscription, rendered in fluid, deeply impressed strokes typical of princely state hammered coinage, occupies the central field within an irregularly shaped flan. The lettering references the reigning British sovereign, George VI, in accordance with the regal formula adopted by the state of Kishangarh for this period. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Hammered gold field displaying a multi-line Persian or Nagari legend referencing the local ruler Yagya Narayan Singh, together with a representation of the Jhar flower, the dynastic emblem of Kishangarh state. The design is struck on an irregular, slightly convex flan with deeply impressed calligraphic characters arranged in horizontal registers. The overall style is consistent with traditional Rajput princely state hammered gold mohur coinage of the mid-twentieth century. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Kishangarh struck gold during a narrow window when the princely state was still permitted to issue regal-style coinage under its own authority — a right the Chamber of Princes was steadily losing to British Indian standardization throughout the 1930s. Yagya Narayan Singh's reign began in 1926, but this issue dates to the years immediately following George VI's accession after Edward VIII's abdication in December 1936, which is precisely why the regnal attribution runs into 1938 rather than opening cleanly on a single date.
