| Obverse description | Crude hammered copper flan displaying Devanagari legend in the field, reading 'श्री राघोजी' (Shri Raghoji), the name and honorific of the ruling Bhonsle chief Raghoji II. The inscription is arranged across the coin's surface in characteristic Nagpur State style, with bold, roughly incised strokes typical of early 19th-century Indian hammered coinage. The overall design is utilitarian, with minimal decorative framing and an uneven, irregular border reflecting the hammered production technique. |
