Beschrijving voorzijde Central field dominated by a large stylized Devanagari inscription rendered in bold relief, reading the ruler's name or title in archaic script characters. The legend is arranged in a circular fashion around the central device, with heavily stylized letterforms characteristic of the local Bundi coinage tradition. The overall design reflects the continuation of pre-modern Indian princely state minting conventions adapted under British suzerainty during the Edwardian period.

Aanvullende informatie

Bundi's coinage under Raghubir Singhji (r. 1889–1927) reflects the fractured monetary reality of Rajputana, where dozens of princely states retained the right to strike their own silver under British paramountcy, producing coins that were legally valid locally but practically useless beyond a day's travel. The Political Department in Delhi spent decades trying to consolidate these issues into the imperial system with limited success.

Bundi's dies were notably inconsistent across this period, and pieces from the 1906–1909 window frequently show misaligned or partially impressed strikes — a product of minimal mint infrastructure rather than any systematic problem.
