Reverse description Hammered copper reverse displaying densely arranged Arabic-script numerals and legend filling the entire field, including the regnal year and mint date in the AH calendar. The characters are boldly struck in raised relief against the irregular flan, consistent with the hand-hammered technique employed at the Jodhpur Mint during the reign of Maharaja Bhim Singh. A partial inner border is discernible on portions of the flan. The field shows characteristic green cuprite and malachite patination indicative of prolonged burial or environmental exposure.
