| Obverse description | The obverse displays bold Arabic script arranged across the field in two horizontal registers divided by a ruled line, with additional legends in the upper and lower marginal segments. The central field bears the royal title 'Badshah' (Emperor) in large, prominent Naskh lettering, flanked by pellet ornaments to the left. The upper margin carries the regnal name of Ahmad Shah Bahadur, while the lower segment contains the regnal year notation. The overall design follows the standard Mughal-style rupee format adapted for Maratha-controlled minting, with characteristic dot and ring decorative devices within the field. |
