| Beschrijving voorzijde | Mughal-style regal field bearing the name and titles of George V rendered in Nastaliq script across multiple horizontal registers, with characteristic pellet ornaments and diagonal stroke devices typical of the Kishangarh hammered coinage. The legend, occupying the full flan, is arranged in flowing calligraphic bands framed by linear borders, following the traditional Indo-Mughal epigraphic convention in which the imperial name serves as the primary design element. The irregular flan and bold relief of the struck inscriptions are characteristic of the hand-hammered technique employed at the Kishangarh mint during the reign of Maharaja Madan Singh. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Kishangarh's coinage under George V retained the feudatory regal style permitted to certain Rajputana states under the Crown's paramountcy arrangements — a system that allowed local minting to continue as a political concession rather than an economic necessity. Madan Singh, who ruled from 1900 to 1926, was among the last generation of princes to issue coins in their own names before the broader standardization pressures of the 1920s made such issues increasingly anachronistic.
Kishangarh's mint output was modest, and these quarter rupees circulated within a small, largely rural princely state of under 900 square miles.
