| Reverse description | Central field dominated by the Gurmukhi inscription 'Sahai' (meaning 'helper' or 'God is my helper'), rendered in bold raised characters below a prominent double horizontal line that bisects the design. Scattered pellets are visible in the lower field, and additional Gurmukhi or Persian script characters appear at the periphery. The reverse maintains the same crude hammered style as the obverse, consistent with locally produced Sikh copper paisa issues. The double line above the main legend is a characteristic device of this series. |
