Reverse description The reverse presents a multi-line Persian legend in horizontal registers across the coin's field, reading the regnal year and mint formula. The legend records 'manus maimanat sanah 27 julus zarb' with the pseudo mint name Surat at the bottom, a characteristic feature of Chanda mint issues of this series. A distinctive inverted 'Ma' (Marathi symbol) and a small dagger-like mark appear as Maratha mint differentials, serving as identifying symbols for the Bhonsle Nagpur branch. The script is arranged in bold raised naskh lettering across the irregular silver flan.
