| Reverse description | Central field featuring the Devanagari inscription 'Dosti London' (friendship with London), referencing the treaty relationship between the Princely State of Mewar and the British Crown, arranged within a prominent quatrefoil or multi-lobed cartouche formed by curved foliate arcs. The legend is presented in two lines of bold raised Devanagari script with a pellet at centre. The surrounding field is filled with a continuous border of stylized leaf and tendril ornaments encircling the central cartouche, characteristic of the decorative idiom of Mewar Swarupshahi coinage. |
