| Obverse description | Central field dominated by a four-pointed star motif in raised relief, with elongated lower point extending toward the coin's base, lending the device an arrow-like quality. The star is rendered in a bold, simplified style typical of late Mughal copper coinage struck at provincial mints. The surrounding field is plain and unadorned, with the flan showing characteristic irregular edges consistent with hand-struck hammered production. Surfaces display natural copper patina with areas of green oxidation. |
