Reverse description Hammered reverse displaying a two-line Arabic legend in Naskh script across the central field. The upper register reads 'Sana Julus Maimanat Manus' (the auspicious regnal year), with the regnal year numeral (RY 19 or RY 21) prominently rendered in the field, flanked by decorative pellet ornaments on either side. The lower register bears the mint name 'Zarb Bareli' (struck at Bareli), identifying the issuing mint. The overall style is consistent with late Mughal provincial hammered rupees, with irregular flan edges and robust calligraphic strokes filling the coin surface.
