| Obverse description | Central field displays a stylised floral spray with branching stems, buds, and foliate motifs rendered in a traditional Indian workshop manner. A prominent Persian or Nagari numeral or symbol occupies the upper central area of the field. The design is framed by a beaded or rope border encircling the entire coin. The overall artistic treatment is characteristic of Rajput princely state coinage, with bold, naive relief typical of local hammered-silver production. |
