| Beschrijving keerzijde | Hammered silver field displaying Persian-script legends in Nasta'liq style, arranged in two registers separated by a horizontal line. The upper register bears the mint name and additional royal epithets, while the lower register contains the regnal year or Hijri date in Eastern Arabic numerals. A small floral or decorative device appears at the center of the field, consistent with Mughal-influenced coinage conventions of the Bundelkhand princely states. |

Orchha's rulers struck coins in the name of the Mughal emperor well into the nineteenth century, long after Mughal authority had effectively collapsed. "Vikramajit Mahendra" is a regnal title rather than a personal name — the ruling house maintained this fiction of Mughal suzerainty partly as political convention, partly to preserve the legitimacy that Mughal nomenclature still carried with local populations even as the British were consolidating control across Bundelkhand.
The state came under British paramountcy through a treaty in 1812, yet local coinage continued undisturbed for years after.
