| Obverse description | Central field dominated by a bold, sprawling Persian legend in cursive Naskh script, largely debased and undecipherable, arranged in multiple horizontal registers across the flan. A dagger device appears at the lower right of the field. The legend fills nearly the entire surface, with minimal plain field visible, characteristic of hammered Kutch coinage of this period. |

| Reverse description | Debased Urdu legend in cursive script arranged in horizontal registers across the central field, incorporating the AH date 1165. The name of the ruling Rao, Lakhpatiji, is inscribed below in Devanagari characters, a distinctive bilingual feature of Kutch Kori coinage. The overall layout is dense and characteristic of hammered Indian princely state issues, with the legends filling the flan to its edges. |
