| Obverse description | Irregular hammered flan bearing a bold Devanagari inscription in the field, rendered in the characteristic cursive style of Indian princely state coinage. The legend, referencing Maharaja Yagya Narayan Singh, is disposed across the coin in two or three roughly horizontal lines, with strokes showing the typical vigor of hand-engraved dies. The field is uneven with natural hammer marks consistent with the hammered technique. No pictorial effigy is present; the design relies entirely on the calligraphic inscription as the primary device. |
