Reverse description Central field bears the Kalima — the Islamic declaration of faith — inscribed in bold Nasta'liq script within a circular border. The legend reads 'lā ilāha illā-llāh, Muḥammadun rasūlu-llāh' (There is no god but God, Muhammad is the messenger of God), arranged in two registers separated by a horizontal line. The mint name Akbarabad and the regnal year appear in the surrounding legend or field, with layout variations across different die combinations. The overall design is characteristic of Mughal hammered silver rupees of the Shah Jahan era.
