| Reverse description | The reverse bears a two-line inscription within a divided rectangular panel, incorporating the mint mark of the Ahmadabad mint in the form of the ankush (elephant goad) symbol in abbreviated form, identifying the issuing authority of the Gaekwad dynasty of Baroda. A Devanagari letter 'Ga' (गा), serving as an abbreviation for Gaekwad, the ruling family, appears alongside an Arabic numeral denoting the regnal year of the Mughal emperor Shah Alam II. Known regnal year varieties include 3x, 40, 41, and 5x, corresponding to the minting periods between 1788 and 1808. The calligraphic style is consistent with Mughal-derived coinage produced at provincial mints under Maratha successor states. |
