| Obverse description | Hammered copper flan bearing a Persian-script legend disposed across the field in multiple lines, rendered in a bold, informal hand characteristic of provincial Durrani coinage. The inscription, referencing the ruler Shah Shuja al-Mulk, occupies the majority of the flan, with additional calligraphic elements visible toward the upper and lower portions of the die. The surfaces display typical die-struck irregularities and natural green patination consistent with extended circulation. The overall design reflects the rudimentary engraving conventions of the Kashmir mint under Durrani administration. |
