| Reverse description | Crude hammered reverse displaying a rectangular cartouche or frame enclosing a stylized Arabic or symbolic device, typical of Carnatic provincial copper coinage of the mid-to-late 18th century. The design within the cartouche is heavily worn and difficult to resolve, though horizontal lines and a central motif are discernible. The flan is irregular and the fields show heavy patination characteristic of long-circulated copper. |
