Obverse description The obverse displays a circular countermark applied over the host coin's legend, bearing a multi-line Persian inscription in Naskh script within a round incuse punch approximately 15mm in diameter. The countermark reads the regnal formula of Munsir Al-Dawla bin Abdullah Al-Qu'aiti with the Hijri date 1307, superimposed upon the underlying Mughal rupee legend which reads 'Sikka Zad Bar Haft Kishwur Sayaye Fazl Shah Alam Badshah Elah Hami Din Mohammad,' crediting the Emperor Shah Alam as protector of the Muhammadan faith. The field shows the worn silver surface of the host coin beneath the applied stamp. The countermark edge is well-defined against the host coin's inscribed field.
