| Beschrijving voorzijde | Crude hammered copper flan bearing a central Persian or Gurmukhi inscription in the field, characteristic of Sikh Empire coinage of the period. The legends are arranged in two or three lines within the flat, unadorned field, with no formal border. The die work is bold but irregular, typical of the hand-struck paisa issues produced under Maharaja Ranjit Singh. The overall fabric is roughly circular with an uneven, jagged flan edge. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Ranjit Singh deliberately kept Sikh coinage in the name of the Gurus rather than his own, a calculated deference that distinguished him from virtually every other sovereign of his time. These coppers circulated through the Punjab's bazaar economy during the empire's most expansive decade, when Ranjit was consolidating territories from Peshawar to the Sutlej.
