| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse bears a multi-line Arabic inscription in the field, arranged in three horizontal registers, recording the mint name Peshawar and the regnal/Hijri date 1246. The lettering is rendered in a bold, somewhat crude naskh style consistent with provincial hammered coinage. The flan edges are irregular, and the strike is slightly off-center, with portions of the inscription cropped at the periphery. The field shows typical granular surface texture and patination associated with copper issues of the Sikh-era Peshawar mint. |

Sultan Muhammad Khan ruled Peshawar as a tributary of the Sikh Empire under Ranjit Singh — a precarious arrangement that nonetheless permitted local coinage. His epithet "Tila'i," meaning golden, was honorific rather than metallurgical, which makes the copper falus something of an irony. The Sikh overlordship would tighten considerably through the 1830s, and by 1834 Ranjit Singh had absorbed Peshawar directly, ending any pretense of autonomous Afghan rule in the city.
