| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field features a stylized leaf motif flanked by branch-like elements, rendered in a crude, bold style characteristic of locally struck imitative coinage. A blundered Gurmukhi legend surrounds the central device, the characters degraded and partially illegible, reflecting the imitative nature of the issue. The overall design is coarsely executed with irregular flan and uneven relief. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Loharu was a small princely state in the Punjab hills whose copper coinage became a template widely imitated by Sikh-adjacent mints during the first half of the nineteenth century. These imitative issues were not forgeries in any modern legal sense — they circulated by convention and weight acceptance rather than by issuing authority, filling a practical void in a region where small-denomination copper was chronically short.
Attribution to the Sikh Empire specifically remains contested among specialists; HHS cataloguing acknowledges the imitative relationship but the precise mint origin is unresolved.
