| Reverse description | Central field displays a two-line Arabic mint and regnal legend in bold hammered calligraphy, reading 'Zarb Urdu Zafar Qarin / Sana' (Struck at the Camp of the Victory-Companion / Year). The mint name 'Urdu Zafar Qarin' refers to the imperial military camp, a mobile mint used during Akbar's reign. The inscription fills the flan without a formal border frame, though traces of a beaded outer border are discernible. The strike is characteristically irregular and slightly off-center, typical of this mobile mint issue. The copper surface exhibits green and reddish patination consistent with age. |
