Obverse description Central field features a stylized floral or foliate device — characteristic of Gwalior princely coinage — flanked by Devanagari inscriptions. A dotted inner border encircles the design, itself surrounded by an outer beaded border. The Devanagari legend identifies the issuing authority of the Gwalior state.

Reverse description The reverse bears a multi-line Devanagari inscription filling the field, recording the regnal date in Vikram Samvat era (VS 1926, corresponding to 1869 AD). The legends are arranged in horizontal registers across the coin's surface, with no border ornamentation, presenting a purely epigraphic composition typical of mid-19th century Gwalior copper coinage.
