| Obverse description | Hammered silver flan bearing three lines of Nastaliq Arabic calligraphy divided by a horizontal ruled line. The upper register reads 'Sikka Mubarak / Badshah Ghazi' and the lower register bears the imperial name 'Alamgir II'. The legends are boldly struck in deep relief characteristic of Mughal-style rupees issued under VOC authority. The field is plain with slight irregularities typical of hand-struck coinage of this period. |
