| Obverse description | Entirely epigraphic design filling the field with bold Urdu/Nasta'liq script arranged in three horizontal registers. The upper register bears the numeral 92 (an abjad representation of the name Muhammad) followed by the royal title 'Asaf Jah, Nizam al-Mulk Bahadur'. The Persian initial 'M' for Mahbub appears prominently in the central field. The AH regnal date is inscribed in the lower register below a separating rule. The legends are rendered in raised relief with characteristic Hyderabadi calligraphic style, with small pellet ornaments separating the lines of text. |
