| Reverse description | The reverse displays a katar (a traditional Indian push-dagger) as the central device, flanked by the Hijri date AH 1228, rendered in Persian nastaliq script. The mint name Nahan (ضرب نہاں) appears as a legend within or about the field, denoting the place of issue. The design elements are arranged within a raised border, consistent with the hammered coinage tradition of the Sirmur state. The strike is characteristic of hand-struck provincial issues, with moderate relief and some softness of detail typical of the period. |
