| Obverse description | Central field bears a three-line Arabic legend naming the ruler, reading 'Nawab Bahadur / Rasul Muhammad / Khanji', arranged in flowing Nasta'liq script across the flan. The inscriptions are set within a plain inner circle surrounded by a uniform beaded border running the full circumference of the coin. The lettering is bold and deeply struck, characteristic of the Junagadh mint style of the early twentieth century. |

| Additional information |
Rasul Muhammad Khan ruled Junagadh for less than two years — he died in 1911 after a reign marked by acute administrative instability, with the state's affairs increasingly managed under British oversight. Gold mohurs of his reign are correspondingly scarce, the product of a treasury that had little time or political stability to authorize significant gold strikes.
