| Beschrijving voorzijde | Irregular square flan struck by hammer technique, displaying bold Arabic script characters arranged across the flat field. The legends, rendered in a somewhat crude but characteristic provincial style, occupy the central area of the flan with strokes extending toward the edges. The copper surface exhibits a deep olive-green patina consistent with prolonged circulation and age. The irregular flan boundaries reflect the primitive striking conditions typical of feudatory subsidiary issues of the early nineteenth century. No border or decorative element frames the inscription. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Basmatnagar was a small feudatory within the Hyderabad State system, issuing its own copper coinage under the broader authority of the Asaf Jah dynasty — the Nizams whose rule over Hyderabad stretched from 1724 into the twentieth century. Feudatory issues like this one occupied a peculiar administrative space: locally sanctioned, locally circulated, and largely ignored by the central mint apparatus in Hyderabad city.
The broad date range assigned to this piece reflects a genuine difficulty in attribution — Basmatnagar issues were not systematically dated, and the regnal overlap across Asaf Jah II through IV during this half-century makes precise placement speculative without die study.
