The legend includes the AH regnal date. Decorative pellet ornaments appear between and alongside the inscription bands, characteristic of Jaisalmer princely coinage.

| Aanvullende informatie |
Jaisalmer was one of the smallest and most isolated of the Rajput princely states, its economy sustained largely by trade taxes on caravans crossing the Thar Desert. Coinage struck here in the name of the Mughal emperor Muhammad Shah — who reigned from 1719 to 1748 and presided over an empire already fracturing under Maratha pressure and the catastrophic 1739 invasion of Nadir Shah — reflects the formal fiction of Mughal suzerainty that many Rajput rulers maintained long after Delhi's actual authority had collapsed.
KM#5.1 is distinguished from related Jaisalmer types by its specific die characteristics, a necessary distinction given how casually local mints recycled and adapted Mughal weight standards.
