| Obverse description | Hammered silver flan bearing a multi-line Persian-Arabic calligraphic legend inscribed across the field in bold Naskh script, arranged in three registers divided by incuse horizontal lines. The central field carries the royal epithet and the regnal name 'Muhammad Shah' flanked by decorative pellets, with the Hijri date 1136 rendered in Eastern Arabic numerals in the lower register. A beaded or scalloped border runs along the periphery, characteristic of late Mughal hammered rupee coinage. The overall fabric is typical of the Ahmadabad mint's production style during the early reign of Emperor Muhammad Shah. |
