| Reverse description | The reverse displays bold Nasta'liq Persian calligraphy in two registers divided by a horizontal line, presenting the mint name Kora and the Hijri date. A six-petalled floral rosette ornament appears prominently in the upper field, a hallmark device of Mughal rupees from this period. The lower register contains the regnal year inscription. The overall composition follows the standard Mughal bilateral format, with high-relief lettering on a flat, unadorned field, and the flan retains the characteristic surface texture of a hand-hammered strike. |
