| Reverse description | Persian inscription occupying the central field, recording the regnal year (RY 20) of Shah Alam II, with cursive Nastaliq-style lettering characteristic of Rajput state issues. The distinctive flower mint mark of Bundi is present in the field, serving as the primary identifier of this issuing authority. Additional calligraphic elements and pellet ornaments fill the remaining field. The strike is typical of hammered copper coinage from the Bundi state mint, showing moderate die wear and uneven flan edges. |
