| Obverse description | Crude hammered field bearing a multi-line Arabic script inscription arranged horizontally across the coin's surface, with a cluster of raised pellets or dots visible in the upper portion of the design. The calligraphic legend is rendered in a simplified Naskh-derived style characteristic of provincial Hyderabad feudatory coinage. The irregular flan edges and rough surfaces reflect the hand-struck nature of this small copper cash issue from the Paithan mint. |

| Reverse description | Hammered field displaying a multi-line Arabic script legend across the central area, with a prominent curved arc or crescent-like element visible in the upper field and a single raised pellet to the left. The inscription is crudely struck in a style typical of feudatory subsidiary mints operating under the Nizam of Hyderabad during the early nineteenth century. The flan is irregular and shows characteristic surface roughness of hand-struck provincial copper coinage. |
