Reverse description Reverse displays a crudely hammered field with bold raised linear devices and irregular surface texture characteristic of transitional Poona mint copper coinage. The word 'badshah' (king) appears as a legend in the field, rendered in a cursive script partially obscured by the irregular strike. The flan edges are uneven and show typical die-shift characteristics of hand-struck Maratha copper issues. The overall design is highly stylized and worn, consistent with heavy circulation.
