| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field displays a circular wheel or chakra device to the right of a flag or staff motif, rendered in a crude native style typical of Indian princely state coinage. The design elements are set within a roughly circular flan with an irregular, somewhat scalloped edge. The relief is low and the strike characteristically uneven, consistent with hand-struck copper issues of the Jaora state. An inscription in Nagari or local script appears in the lower portion of the field below the principal devices. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Jaora was a small Muslim princely state in Malwa, central India, ruled by a line of Pashtun nawabs who had carved out their domain in the early nineteenth century through service to the Maratha confederacy — an irony that sat uneasily with the state's identity. Muhammad Ismail Khan's copper coinage of 1865 was issued well into the period of British paramountcy, when most princely states retained the right to strike small denomination copper for purely local circulation. These pieces rarely traveled far.
