Reverse description The reverse carries a multi-line Persian legend in Nasta'liq script, occupying the central field within a plain border, recording the auspicious accession formula and the mint name Sarhind together with the regnal year. The phrase 'Julus manus maimana' — denoting the auspicious year of accession — appears prominently, followed by the regnal year numeral and the mint designation 'Zarb Sarhind'. The hammered flan shows the characteristic irregular outline and slightly uneven strike typical of Mughal rupees produced at provincial mints. Pellet embellishments are scattered in the field, consistent with the decorative conventions of this mint and period. The calligraphy is bold and confident, reflecting the established Mughal imperial style of the early eighteenth century.
