| Obverse description | The obverse displays a stylized Mughal-derived design composed of bold raised pellets arranged in a conventional floral or plant-like pattern within the left portion of the field, alongside Arabic calligraphic elements occupying the right side within a recessed rectangular panel. A small circular device or mint mark appears in the lower left field. The overall composition is characteristic of the debased Mughal coinage tradition adopted by Gwalior princely state issues struck in the name of Shah Alam II. |
