| Reverse description | The reverse presents bold Arabic inscriptions recording the regnal year (RY 3) of Shah Alam II, arranged in multiple registers across the field. A star-shaped mint mark identifying the Kora mint is prominently placed within the legend. The inscription is executed in flowing Naskh script, with subsidiary decorative elements filling the field. The hammered fabric imparts an irregular flan with characteristic die-shift typical of Maratha silver rupees of this period. |
