| Obverse description | The obverse features densely arranged Devanagari legends filling the entire field in a characteristic hammered style typical of Bundi State coinage. The date 1925 is prominently inscribed in the central field within a rounded cartouche, surrounded by circular Devanagari inscriptions referencing the ruling authority. The bold, raised lettering displays the angular calligraphic style associated with Rajputana princely state issues of the early twentieth century. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is fully occupied by densely packed Devanagari inscriptions arranged in multiple registers across the entire coin field, characteristic of the traditional hand-struck coinage of Bundi State. The legends, rendered in bold raised relief, reference the ruler Raghubir Singhji and the suzerainty of George V as Emperor of India. The hammered flan exhibits an irregular surface consistent with the indigenous minting technique employed at the Bundi State mint. |
