| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse likewise bears multiple horizontal registers of bold Persian-Nastaliq script occupying the entire coin field, divided by incuse horizontal lines in the Mughal rupee tradition. The legends reference the regnal year and the authority of the issuing ruler, with the mint name Sawai Jaipur incorporated into the inscription. The relief is high and the lettering bold, though softness of strike and the irregular planchet shape are consistent with the hand-fed milling practices of the Sawai Jaipur Mint during this period. No border or decorative frame is present, the script running to the very edge of the flan. The inscription on this face complements the obverse, together forming the complete royal and mint legend. |

Jaipur's coinage during Ram Singh II's reign occupied a bureaucratically awkward position: the state acknowledged British paramountcy by placing Victoria's name on the coin while continuing to issue under its own authority and on its own metrology. This dual-attribution arrangement was common among Rajput states that retained formal treaty relationships with the Crown but had not yet been absorbed into the imperial monetary system.
The Jaipur mint at this period was still operating on traditional hand-striking methods well after British Indian mints had mechanized. Surface irregularities on surviving examples typically reflect equipment, not wear.
