| Obverse description | Central rectangular cartouche enclosing the royal Persian-script legend of Shah Alam II in large raised characters, with the emperor's name and titles occupying the main field. Supplementary Arabic legends appear in the upper and lower margins outside the cartouche, bearing the regnal year and mint name. The entire design is executed in the bold, calligraphic Mughal hammered style characteristic of late Mughal-era Maratha issues struck in the name of the nominal emperor. |
