Reverse description A boldly rendered facing solar effigy dominates the central field, depicted as a human face with stylized eyes, nose, and mouth set within a radiant sun with fourteen rays emanating outward to the coin's periphery. A central pellet is placed above the facial features on the sun's disk. A circular legend in Devanagari script surrounds the solar device along the rim, referencing the Holkar ruler Shivaji Rao of Indore. The design reflects the distinctive Holkar dynastic solar symbolism traditional to the coinage of Indore.
