Reverse description Hammered gold field bearing a multi-line calligraphic inscription in Persian script arranged across the flan, citing the name and regnal titles of Maharaja Ram Singh II, ruler of Jaipur, along with mint and date information in the Mughal coinage tradition. The bold, flowing characters dominate the field in characteristic Indian hammered-gold style, with no subsidiary devices or borders. The irregular planchet displays the typical uneven surface relief associated with hand-struck issues of this princely state.
