| Reverse description | The reverse presents a three-register calligraphic composition in Nastaliq script, similarly framed by horizontal raised lines. The upper register carries the epithet of divine benediction, the central band records the mint name Shahjahanabad together with the regnal year and Hijri date, and the lower register contains the remainder of the mint and date formula. The deep, confident engraving and the slightly irregular flan edges are consistent with the hammered production technique employed at the imperial Shahjahanabad mint throughout Muhammad Shah's reign. |
