| Obverse description | Hammered copper flan of irregular round form bearing a bold Persian-style legend in Nagari or degenerate Mughal-derived script arranged across the field in multiple horizontal registers, typical of the Jat coinage of Bharatpur. The inscription, rendered in high relief on a plain field, is framed above and below by raised linear borders. The die work is characteristic of the hand-struck provincial coinage of the Bharatpur state, with bold but somewhat crude letterforms reflecting local mint production. |
