| Reverse description | The reverse field displays a Devanagari legend, with the auspicious Marathi/Sanskrit word 'Shri' (श्री) prominently struck to the left within the coin's field, serving as the Peshwa mint mark and sacred invocation. The remainder of the field carries additional Persian or Fasli date legends where present, consistent with Chakan mint issues struck under Peshwa authority in the name of Shah Alam II. The overall strike is bold and slightly irregular, typical of hammered Maratha coinage of this period. The reverse layout reflects the dual Mughal-Maratha administrative and religious character of these issues. |
