| Obverse description | Regal-style hammered silver coin bearing a multi-line Persian-script legend in the field, arranged in three horizontal registers divided by raised linear bands. The central inscription references Empress Victoria with the epithet 'Malike-e-Muazzama' (Great Queen Empress), executed in flowing Nastaliq calligraphy. The flan is irregular and slightly convex, characteristic of hand-struck Indian princely state coinage of the period. The legend occupies the full face of the coin with no portrait effigy, consistent with the regal-style type issued by Kishangarh under British suzerainty. |
