Beschrijving voorzijde Crude hammered field displaying Devanagari inscriptions arranged across the flan, with the ruler's name and regnal titles rendered in bold, raised characters. The legends occupy the full field in a roughly divided quadrant arrangement, separated by dot punctuation marks. The overall style is characteristic of provincial Indian princely state coinage, with an inner beaded border encircling the inscriptions.

Aanvullende informatie

Banswara was among the smaller Rajput princely states in what is now southern Rajasthan, and its coinage is poorly documented outside specialist references. Lakshman Singh ruled Banswara from 1844 until 1905 — an unusually long reign — and copper issues from his tenure circulated within a state whose economy rested almost entirely on agriculture and local trade. The British paramountcy over Rajputana technically allowed such autonomous copper coinage to continue, as the Crown showed little interest in standardizing the smallest-denomination local currency.
