| Obverse description | Central field features the balemark device of the United East India Company (VEIC), comprising the interlinked letters of the Company's cipher. The date of issue appears below the device. The design is enclosed within a toothed border, though this border is frequently weak or entirely absent due to the irregular striking typical of this issue. |

| Reverse description | A pair of balanced scales is depicted centrally, with the beam supported by a central post surmounted by a small orb or finial. The Arabic word 'Adil' (meaning 'just' or 'fair') appears in the field between the two pans of the scales, rendered in flowing Naskh script. The composition is set within a plain, broad field with no additional border ornament, consistent with the utilitarian character of this copper issue. |
