| Obverse description | Hammered copper flan bearing a Mughal-style legend in Persian-Nastaliq script arranged across the field in multiple lines, issued in the name of Mughal emperor Muhammad Akbar II (r. 1806–1837) as the nominal suzerain. The design follows the traditional Mughal coinage format adopted by the Bundi state under ruler Bishan Singh (r. 1804–1821), with floral or foliate decorative elements visible in the upper segment of the field. The strike is typical of provincial hammered coinage, with uneven flan edges and moderately bold relief on the central legends. |
