The outer margin bears a Devanagari legend reading 'Maharao Shri Khengarji Kutch Bhuj' along with the VS date, rendered in a traditional Indian script style typical of Kutch princely coinage. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is divided into two concentric zones: the outer ring carries a Persian legend reading 'George V Kaiser-i-Hind, zarb Bhuj' (George V Emperor of India, struck at Bhuj) along with the AD date, while the inner field displays the denomination in Devanagari script as 'Kori Ek' (One Kori). The bilingual, bicameral layout reflects the dual authority of the British Crown and the local Kutch princely administration. |
