| Obverse description | Hammered copper flan bearing multiple lines of Persian-style Devanagari or Indo-Persian script arranged across the field in flowing calligraphic strokes. The legend, rendered in the local Jodhpur mint style, occupies virtually the entire face of the coin with bold, raised characters set against a stippled field. The irregular, slightly polygonal flan is characteristic of hand-struck Rajput princely coinage of the late 18th century. Surface exhibits natural green patination over the copper substrate. No figural device is present; the design is purely epigraphic. |
