| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse displays dense, bold Arabic calligraphy in the Nastaliq script characteristic of Durrani-era Afghan coinage, with the royal legend reading 'Al-Sultan Mahmud Shah' arranged across the field in two registers separated by a horizontal decorative dividing line. The inscription is surrounded by a profusion of floral vine and foliate ornamental motifs that fill the entire field, interspersed with small pellet decorations. The Hijri regnal year 1228 appears in the lower register. The overall design, typical of hammered Kabul rupees, is executed with deep, vigorous relief giving the legends a sculptural, almost three-dimensional quality. The coin exhibits the characteristic irregular flan shape inherent to the hand-struck production method of this period. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse bears a concise two-line Arabic legend in bold Nastaliq script reading 'Zarb Kabul' (struck at Kabul), centrally positioned within the field and denoting the mint of issue. The legend is enclosed by a prominent inner circle of large raised pellets forming a decorative border, which is itself surrounded by a further outer ring of smaller pellets near the coin's rim. The field beyond the inner legend shows characteristic die-struck texture with light granulation typical of hand-hammered Durrani silver coinage. The simplicity of the reverse design contrasts with the elaborate obverse, in accordance with standard practice for Afghan rupees of the early 19th century. |
