Reverse description Hammered reverse field featuring a multi-line Persian nastaliq legend, with inscriptions arranged in three horizontal registers separated by ruled lines. The text references the mint name Maheshwar and the regnal year, consistent with Mughal-style provincial rupee coinage issued under Malhar Rao Holkar. A small floral or pellet ornament is visible in the field. The strike is bold but irregular, characteristic of hand-struck provincial issues, with the legend partially extending toward the coin's uneven periphery. No figurative Lingam device is discernible; the design is purely epigraphic.
