| Obverse description | Central field bears a multi-line Persian legend in Nastaliq script, largely falling off the flan due to the irregular flan preparation typical of hammered coinage of the period. The inscription reads 'Sikka Mubarak Badshah Ghazi Akbar Shah,' identifying the coin as the auspicious issue of the victorious Emperor Muhammad Akbar Shah II. The legend is arranged in horizontal registers across the field, with no figural imagery, consistent with Islamic numismatic tradition. |
