Reverse description The reverse displays a stylized crescent or horseshoe-shaped symbol in the upper field, accompanied by a bold pellet or globular element at its center, evoking a schematic floral or celestial motif. Below, a series of raised pellets arranged in a curved row occupies the lower register, with additional wavy linear devices filling the field. The design is typical of the highly abstract symbolic vocabulary used on Peshwa-period gold fanams, struck on a small, thick, irregularly shaped flan consistent with hammered coinage of the period.
