| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is entirely occupied by a multi-line devotional and regnal legend in Bengali script, filling the coin's field from edge to edge without a central device. The inscription invokes the goddess Siva Durga and records the royal titles and name of the ruling maharaja, Rama Ganga Manikya Deva, along with a reference to the consort Chandra Tara Maha Devi. Small decorative cross or floral ornaments appear along the lower border. The bold, deeply incised lettering is characteristic of the hammered gold mohurs produced under the Manikya dynasty of Tripura. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Tripura's coinage occupies an unusual position in the princely mint tradition — the state maintained its own gold issues long after neighboring Bengal had been absorbed into British monetary administration, a persistence that owed more to dynastic pride than commercial necessity. Rama Ganga Manikya ruled in the early nineteenth century as the British consolidated control across the northeast, and the continued striking of gold mohurs was an assertion of sovereign status under increasingly constrained circumstances.
The Fr#1428 designation places this among the rarer documented Tripura gold issues.
