| Reverse description | The reverse carries multiple lines of Persian calligraphic inscription in Nastaliq script filling the entire field, recording the ruler's name, titles, and the mint and regnal year. The legends are arranged in flowing curved lines conforming to the round flan, as is customary for Durrani hammered rupees. The strike shows typical characteristics of the Ahmedshahi Mint, with slightly weak areas at the edges due to the hand-hammering technique. |
