Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse bears a Perso-Arabic inscription in two horizontal lines arranged within a cartouche-style band across the central field, characteristic of Indo-Islamic coinage conventions. The upper line gives the regnal or calendar year, while the lower line reads 'یک دوکدو ضرب بھج', translating to 'One Dokdo, struck in Bhuj'. The script is executed in a bold Naskh-influenced hand, hammered into the copper flan. The field surrounding the inscription is plain, and the legends fill the available space with little remaining margin. The design follows the standard formulaic layout used for Kutch princely copper issues of this period.

Aanvullende informatie

Bhuj was the capital mint of Kutch, a princely state that retained striking autonomy well into the British colonial period through treaty arrangements. Pragmalji II ruled from 1860 to 1875, and coinage of his reign bears the unusual dual-authority format required by the Crown — acknowledging Victoria while preserving the local ruler's name, a political compromise worked out state by state rather than through any uniform policy.

The dokdo denomination is specific to Kutch's traditional currency system, which resisted metrication until well after this issue.
