| Obverse description | Central field features a katar (dagger) flanked by decorative foliate elements and a leaf motif, with the frozen Vikram Samvat date VS 1885 inscribed above in Gurmukhi/Persian numerals. The design is rendered in a flowing Mughal-influenced style with curvilinear calligraphic inscriptions surrounding the central devices. Beaded ornamental pellets are interspersed throughout the field as decorative separators. The entire composition is enclosed within a beaded inner border, with additional calligraphic legends occupying the surrounding margins. |
