| Reverse description | Reverse presents a similarly crude hammered field with Arabic inscription in raised relief, the legends partially visible due to the irregular flan and characteristic weak strike of this fractional copper denomination. The script is rendered in a flowing, informal style consistent with Mughal mint practice of the period. The border shows remnants of a rope or pellet pattern typical of Akbar-era copper coinage. Surface exhibits natural brown patina with areas of green cuprite corrosion. |
