| Reverse description | Hammered reverse bearing a multi-line Arabic epigraphic legend distributed across the field in three registers. The inscription reads 'Sana Julus Maimant Manus Zarb Arkat', recording the regnal year of the auspicious accession and identifying the Arcot (Arkat) mint as the place of striking. The script is rendered in a bold, cursive Naskh style consistent with Mughal provincial coinage conventions. Regnal year numerals appear integrated within the legend, referencing AH years 1167 and 1168. The overall composition is purely epigraphic with no additional ornamental devices. |
