Obverse description The obverse field is entirely occupied by a multi-line Persian-script legend arranged in horizontal registers across the flan, executed in the traditional Mughal-derived hammered style characteristic of Jaipur princely coinage. The inscription records the name and titles of Queen Victoria as suzerain, rendered in Nastaliq calligraphy. Small pellet ornaments and foliate devices punctuate the margins and between registers, serving as decorative fillers. A horizontal line divides the primary legend from a subsidiary inscription in the lower register. The overall design follows the Indo-Mughal epigraphic tradition, with no figurative imagery.
