Reverse description Hammered reverse displaying a two-line Arabic legend within a divided field, separated by a prominent horizontal rule. The upper register bears the word 'Ibn' (son of) in large, bold raised characters, while the lower register reads 'Nasir Shah', identifying the sultan's paternal lineage. The inscription is rendered in a sturdy Naskh hand consistent with the Malwa Sultanate hammered copper series. The flan edges are rough and irregular, and the surface retains a heavy green patina typical of excavated copper issues of the period.
