| Reverse description | Plain or lightly struck reverse surface typical of the hammered copper paisa coinage of Hyderabad under Mir Mahbub Ali Khan. The reverse field is largely unadorned, often showing only incidental die impressions or flan texture resulting from the irregular hand-striking process. The surface displays characteristic granularity and porosity consistent with copper alloy composition and rudimentary mint production methods of the period. |
