Reverse description Hammered reverse displaying a horizontal dividing line bisecting the field, above which appears a stylised floral or vegetal ornamental motif with upward-pointing elements, possibly a conventionalised flower or plant spray. Below the dividing line, the mint and denomination legend is inscribed in Persian script across the lower register. The overall design is typical of provincial Mughal-influenced copper coinage, with the floral device serving as a decorative centrepiece above the mint legend.
