| Obverse description | Central field bears the Persian inscription 'Ba-zaman-i-mubarak George VI' (meaning 'In the auspicious reign of George VI'), accompanied by a jhar (floral spray) symbol and a daroga mark. The surrounding legend reads 'Shah-i-Inglistan, Emperor-i-Hindustan' (King of England, Emperor of India), inscribed in a flowing Nastaliq script. The design follows the traditional Mughal-derived hammered coinage style of the Jodhpur mint, with no portrait of the monarch, conforming to the local Islamic-influenced convention of non-figural coin design. |
