| Reverse description | Hammered silver reverse displaying two horizontal registers of Arabic Naskh calligraphic legend separated by a ruled line. The upper register bears the phrase 'Sana 2 Julus Maimnat Manus' (Year 2 of the auspicious and familiar accession), referring to the second regnal year of Alamgir II. The lower register contains the mint name 'Zarb Ajmer' (struck at Ajmer), identifying the place of coinage. Decorative dot pellets are scattered throughout the field as ornamental fillers, consistent with standard Mughal hammered rupee production. A small circular hole is visible near the lower rim, indicating the coin was likely mounted or worn as jewelry at some point in its history. |
