| Reverse description | The reverse displays the mint name and regnal year inscription in Persian script across the field, divided by a horizontal sword-like line. The legend reads 'Zarb Bikanir Sana Julus Maimanat Manus' with the regnal year 52 (RY) inscribed in the lower register, indicating the fifty-second year of Alamgir II's reign as used fictitiously by the Bikanir state. Decorative pellet or rosette ornaments are distributed around the margins, consistent with the hammered coinage tradition of the Bikanir Mint. The calligraphy is executed in bold nashtaliq style typical of Rajput princely state issues. |
