| Beschrijving voorzijde | A stylized Nagari monogram or symbolic device enclosed within a circular border. The central device appears to consist of an angular, roughly cruciform or letter-like symbol rendered in a bold, primitive style typical of small princely state copper coinage. The surrounding circle is raised and somewhat irregular, consistent with hand-struck hammered production. The field is flat and shows characteristic die rust and irregular flan surfaces. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Banswara was among the smaller Rajput states in what is now southern Rajasthan, and its coinage is correspondingly scarce — the state covered barely 1,600 square miles and maintained only the most minimal administrative infrastructure. Lakshman Singh ruled from 1844 to 1905, an unusually long reign, yet KM#1 appears to be the sole copper issue attributed to him, suggesting minting was episodic rather than sustained.
The quarter paisa denomination served the lowest tier of daily transactions, and copper issues from minor princely states rarely survived in quantity.
