| Obverse description | Central field bearing the Persian inscription in Nastaliq script, arranged in multiple lines across the flan in the characteristic Mughal rupee format struck in the name of Shah Alam II. The legend includes the royal titles and the Hijri regnal year. The inscription is enclosed within a plain dotted border, typical of late Mughal-era coinage produced at regional mints under Sikh authority. The overall style reflects the inherited Mughal calligraphic tradition, with flowing script rendered in hammered relief. |
