| Reverse description | Arabic legend in bold Naskh script occupying the entire reverse field, disposed in multiple lines across the flan without a framing border. The inscription records the mint name Shadiyabad (Shaidabad) and the regnal year, consistent with standard Malwa Sultanate tanka coinage. Dot separators appear between word groupings, and the strokes of the letters are raised in high relief against the roughly textured field. The flan edges are uneven, typical of hand-hammered production. |
