Reverse description The reverse displays a three-line Persian legend in bold Naskh script, divided by two curved parallel bands across the field, recording the mint name Murshidabad and the frozen regnal year 19. The frozen regnal year '١٩' (19) is prominently inscribed in the upper register, flanked by two floral or asterisk ornaments at the upper left and right of the field. The lower register carries the mint designation 'Zarb Murshidabad,' identifying the place of striking, consistent with standard Bengal Presidency Mughal-style gold coinage of this period. The milled edge is visible along the coin's periphery.
