Reverse description Hammered reverse field displaying a two-line Persian Nastaliq legend reading 'Shah Alam / Badshah Ghazi', invoking the Mughal imperial title as a mark of nominal suzerainty. The inscription is struck in bold raised relief across the irregular flan, with a horizontal line dividing the two lines of text. Pellet ornaments and a crescent device are visible in the field, consistent with Maratha copper coinage struck in the name of the Mughal emperor Shah Alam during the late 17th century.
