Obverse description Central field features Devanagari and Persian-influenced script inscriptions arranged in multiple registers, divided by a horizontal line across the field. The legends reference the regnal authority and date in the traditional style of Jodhpur State coinage. Decorative pellets are distributed around the field, framing the inscriptions. The overall design follows the indigenous Indian princely state tradition rather than a portrait type, with bold raised lettering in an archaic calligraphic style. The coin bears no effigy, consistent with the aniconic conventions of Jodhpur copper issues.
