| 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. |
