| Beschrijving voorzijde | A stylized leaf motif occupying the central field, oriented to the right, rendered in low relief characteristic of hammered copper coinage. The design is bold and schematic, with the leaf's stem and lobes clearly delineated against a flat, unadorned field. The planchet is irregular in shape, as typical of hand-struck Sikh paisa coinage of this period. The surfaces show the uneven strike consistent with primitive minting techniques employed at provincial Sikh mints. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Sikh Empire's copper paisa coinage was struck at numerous local mints operating under varying degrees of central oversight from Lahore, which is why KM#7.18 carries a specific mint identifier within a series that sprawls across dozens of catalogued varieties. Ranjit Singh's administration never fully standardized copper — silver was the prestige metal, and small denomination coinage was largely left to regional minting conventions inherited from earlier Mughal and Durrani practice.
Die alignment and flan preparation vary considerably across this series, a direct consequence of decentralized production.
