| Obverse description | The obverse features a corrupt or stylized Urdu legend arranged in multiple horizontal registers across the field, characteristic of the archaic engraving style employed at the Bhuj mint. The AD date (1865 or 1866) appears prominently within the inscription, rendered in Eastern Arabic numerals. A dagger motif is present among the legend elements. The overall design reflects the provincial character of Kutch coinage during the reign of Pragmalji II under British suzerainty. |

| Reverse description | The reverse displays a central trident symbol positioned to the left of a Devanagari legend reading 'Trambiyo Jarb Bhuj', indicating the denomination and the Bhuj mint. An eight-petalled rosette ornament appears to the right of the legend, serving as a decorative terminal device. The design is arranged in a compact horizontal format filling the field, consistent with the utilitarian style of Kutch copper coinage of the period. The engraving is bold and slightly irregular, typical of hand-cut dies used at provincial Indian mints in the mid-nineteenth century. |
