| Opschrift voorzijde | EDWARD VII KING & EMPEROR |
| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field displays the denomination inscription 'ONE RUPEE INDIA' arranged in three horizontal lines, with the Urdu legend 'یک روپیہ' (Ek Rupya, meaning 'One Rupee') below, and the date '1907' at the base. The inscription is flanked by a symmetrical wreath of floral and foliate branches, surmounted by a small imperial crown at the top. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded border. The reverse follows the standard British India rupee reverse convention, here used as a mule pairing with the Straits Settlements-type obverse. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
This piece is a pattern mule — a deliberate pairing of two dies not intended for circulation — produced during the systematic effort to update British Indian coinage under Edward VII. The "modernised second style" designation places this among a series of trial strikings that tested revised portrait punches against existing or experimental reverse dies, in this case borrowed from Straits Settlements coinage rather than standard Indian issue. Such cross-authority mules were not accidents; the Royal Mint used them to evaluate compatibility of die geometry and depth across related colonial series.
