Obverse description Densely inscribed field bearing Persian-script legends in multiple registers, typical of Mughal-style coinage adopted by the Bharatpur princely state under Ranjit Singh. The inscription is arranged in flowing Nastaliq calligraphy divided by a central horizontal cartouche band, filling the entire flan. The legends record the ruler's name and regnal titles. The overall design follows the traditional hammered rupee format of northern Indian princely mints.

Reverse description Inscribed field in Persian Nastaliq script arranged in multiple registers across the flan, with the mint name Mahe Indrapur and regnal year indicated. A small six-pointed star or floral ornament appears in the lower field, serving as a mint or die mark. The reverse carries the notation of regnal year 31, consistent with the dating conventions of Bharatpur coinage. The overall layout mirrors the obverse in its dense calligraphic style.
