| Reverse description | The reverse displays a Nagari character 'Ji' (ज), serving as the regnal initial of Jayaji Rao Scindia, rendered prominently in the central field in Devanagari script. Additional Arabic or Nagari marginal text surrounds the central device, consistent with the bilingual coinage tradition of the Gwalior princely state. The overall execution is characteristic of hammered copper coinage of the period, with an irregular flan and bold, deeply incised lettering typical of the Tegh Shahi issues. |
