| Obverse description | Central field bears the Persian letter 'He' (ﻫ) rendered in a stylized, cursive form, enclosed within a beaded border that runs along the coin's entire circumference. The letter is boldly struck and occupies the majority of the flan. The overall design is characteristic of the small gold fanam coinage issued under Tipu Sultan, with the sacred initial serving as the primary emblematic device. |
