| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse displays a central image of the royal sword (khandag) as the principal device, symbolising the martial authority of the Gaekwad dynasty. Above the sword, the Devanagari legend 'सरकार' (Sarkar) is inscribed in the upper field. Encircling the entire design along the border is an extended Devanagari legend reading 'खंडराव गायीकवाड सना खास खहस मश्री बहादूर', identifying the ruler Khanderao Gaekwad and his honorific titles. The combination of a Persian obverse and Devanagari reverse reflects the bilingual administrative tradition of the Baroda state. The overall style is consistent with presentation or nazrana coinage intended for ceremonial gifting rather than general circulation. |

Nazrana coins were presentation pieces, not circulation strikes — minted specifically as formal gifts for ceremonies, tribute payments, or audiences with the ruling Gaekwad. The 1865 date places this during the reign of Khande Rao Gaekwad, whose court maintained the tradition even as British paramountcy steadily eroded the practical autonomy of the Baroda state. These pieces were typically struck with greater care than standard rupees, and surviving examples often show it.
