Obverse description Hammered silver flan bearing Persian/Arabic script arranged in two registers separated by a horizontal line. The upper register contains partial floral or foliate ornamental elements, while the lower register displays bold Nastaliq calligraphy denoting the ruler's name and titles. The overall style is consistent with late Mughal-influenced coinage as issued by the Maratha Gwalior state under Mahadji Rao Scindia, with a characteristically irregular flan and granular surface texture typical of hand-struck issues.
