Reverse description Hammered copper flan bearing a multi-line Arabic legend in Naskh script arranged across the field and divided by a horizontal rule. The inscription records the Hijri regnal year, with numerals visible in the upper portion of the die. The lower field contains further titulature in bold relief, consistent with the coinage conventions of the Gujarat Sultanate under Bahadur Shah. The overall strike is typical of hand-hammered provincial issues, with an irregular outline and uneven relief.
