| Reverse description | Central field bears a Persian inscription in Nastaliq script arranged in horizontal registers, incorporating the phrases 'manus maimanat' (auspicious abode) and 'sana julus zarb' (year of reign, struck at), with the regnal year and mint name of Mustafabad (Rampur) indicated. A floral spray or leaf ornament is visible in the field, a common decorative device on Mughal provincial rupees. The date in AH numerals appears in the lower portion of the field. The overall style is consistent with hammered rupee coinage issued under the nominal authority of the Mughal emperor Shah Alam II by the Rohilkhand state. |
