| Beschrijving keerzijde | 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. |

Jayaji Rao Scindia ruled Gwalior under heavy British paramountcy, and the "Tegh Shahi" designation on this copper paisa refers to a local regal attribution rather than an independent monetary system — the Scindia dynasty retained the form of princely coinage while British India increasingly dominated actual commerce. Gwalior was among the last major princely states to issue indigenous copper before the colonial standardization push of the 1870s and 1880s forced most states toward British-pattern currency.
