Reverse description Central rectangular cartouche in Nastaliq script bearing the julus (regnal year) formula and the mint name Arcot (Arkat), enclosed within a double-ruled frame decorated with floral rosettes and dotted borders. Additional inscriptions appear in the upper and lower segments of the field, referencing the Hijri date of issue. Small ornamental devices fill the spaces between the cartouche and the coin's rim, consistent with Mughal-style hammered silver coinage of the period.
