Reverse description The reverse presents the Jagadhri mint name inscribed in bold Naskh calligraphy within the central field, accompanied by a vertical katar (dagger) mint mark serving as the distinctive symbol of this issuing authority. The regnal year 31 (RY 31) of Shah Alam II appears to the left of the mint mark, with the words 'julus' and associated auspicious epithets completing the legend. The field is adorned with scattered pellet ornaments, consistent with the hammered technique employed at this princely state mint. The flan edges are characteristically uneven, reflecting hand-struck production methods.
