| Obverse description | Hammered silver flan bearing the royal Persian-script legend in three horizontal registers divided by raised linear borders. The central field displays the prominent inscription 'Sikka Mubarak Badshah Ghazi Alamgir' in bold Naskh calligraphy, identifying the reigning Mughal emperor Alamgir II. Decorative pellet ornaments punctuate the field between registers. The inscription reads continuously across the flan, consistent with the standard Mughal rupee obverse type, with the legend partially curving toward the coin's irregular periphery. |
