Obverse description Hammered silver field bearing a bold Persian-script legend in flowing nastaliq calligraphy occupying the entire flan, with deeply struck, bold strokes characteristic of the Kishangarh mint style. The inscription references the regal titles of King George V as suzerain, rendered in multiple lines across the field. The irregular flan and characteristic tool marks are consistent with hand-hammered production at a provincial Indian princely-state mint. The legend is distributed across the upper, central, and lower fields with no border or rim decoration, typical of Rajput regal coinage of the early twentieth century.
