| Beschrijving keerzijde | Reverse field displaying bold Nastaliq-style Arabic legends struck in high relief across the irregularly shaped hammered planchet, with flowing calligraphic strokes characteristic of late Mughal coinage. A cluster of pellets appears to the left of the central legend, serving as a mint or regnal mark. The inscription references the Hijri regnal year and mint name, consistent with Mughal imperial coinage conventions as adopted by the Gwalior princely state. The flan edges are irregular and slightly ragged, typical of hand-struck rupees of this era. Patination and surface corrosion partially obscure some legend details. |

Daulat Rao Sindhia ruled Gwalior during one of the most turbulent periods in Maratha history — his tenure coincided with the catastrophic Maratha defeat at the Third Battle of Panipat in 1761 and ended with the humiliating Treaty of Surji-Anjangaon in 1803, which stripped him of territories north of Delhi and forced a subsidiary alliance with the British East India Company. Striking rupees in the name of the Mughal emperor Shah Alam II was a political formality by this point; Shah Alam had been blinded and effectively imprisoned by Ghulam Qadir in 1788, rendering imperial authority entirely nominal.
The extended date range reflects continued use of a single regal formula across decades rather than annual die changes.
