| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse displays a large, ornate stylized floral or leaf arabesque motif occupying the majority of the field, rendered in bold relief typical of Jaipur hammered copper issues. The design features flowing, scrolling leaf-like forms arranged symmetrically around a central axis, with a crescent-shaped element visible at the upper register. The flan is broad and irregular, consistent with hand-struck production, and the surface shows characteristic granularity of copper coinage from the Sawai Jaipur mint during the reign of Shah Alam II. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Shah Alam II was Mughal emperor in name only by this period — blind after being blinded by Ghulam Qadir in 1788, and effectively a pensioner of the Marathas, then the British after Patparganj in 1803. Jaipur's continued use of his regnal titles on coinage was a political formality, acknowledging nominal Mughal suzerainty while the Kachhwaha rulers operated with near-total autonomy. The practice was common across Rajputana but carried less weight with each passing year.
KM#39 spans the final decade of that fiction, ending with the British assumption of Delhi.
