| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents the denomination inscribed in two scripts, reflecting the bilingual administrative practice of the Bengal Presidency. The upper portion bears a Persian legend 'Yek pai sikka' in Arabic script, while the lower portion displays the equivalent Devanagari legend 'Ek pai sikka.' A trident symbol appears as a central dividing device between the two inscriptions, serving as both a decorative and functional element separating the two languages. The overall design is plain and utilitarian, consistent with the standard circulation coinage of the period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Shah Alam II died in 1806, making the use of his name on coins struck two decades after his death a deliberate administrative fiction maintained by the East India Company. The Bengal Presidency continued issuing copper pice under his regnal title well into the 1830s, long after Mughal authority had collapsed entirely, as a concession to local commercial familiarity with the coinage type.
