| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse displays a multi-line Persian legend in Nastaliq script within a central cartouche framed by two horizontal rules, recording the auspicious accession formula 'Juloos Memanat Manoos' (the Throne of Auspicious Familiarity), followed by the regnal year (Sana) 2 and the mint name Multan (Zarb Multan) in the lower register. The bold, deeply struck lettering is characteristic of the Multan mint's hammered coinage under Ahmad Shah Bahadur, with the flan showing the typical irregular edges of hand-cut silver blanks. The layout conforms to the standard Mughal rupee reverse format established under earlier emperors. |

Ahmad Shah Bahadur's reign lasted only six years before he was deposed and blinded by the Imad ul-Mulk in 1754 — a reign defined less by imperial consolidation than by the accelerating fragmentation of Mughal authority. The Multan mint operated throughout, though the empire it nominally served was losing territory to Maratha incursions in the east and Afghan pressure from the northwest following Nadir Shah's sack of Delhi in 1739.
Multan's position as a major commercial node on trans-Indus trade routes kept its mint active even as political coherence collapsed around it.
