Reverse description Hammered reverse field bearing an Arabic inscription in Nastaliq script reading 'sanah jalus' (year of accession), referencing the regnal year formula standard to Hyderabadi copper issues. The lettering is bold and deeply impressed, though irregular in execution due to the hammered technique. Decorative pellets or dot clusters are visible in the field, flanking the central legend, a common ornamental feature on Peston shahi copper coinage. The flan is irregular and shows typical die and striking characteristics of hand-produced Hyderabad paisa coinage.
