Reverse description The reverse depicts a stylized lion or bull facing left in the central field, rendered in a bold, naïve style typical of hammered copper issues from the Rewa princely state. The animal stands on a ground line, with a rayed or sun-burst border element visible around the upper portion of the field. Below or surrounding the figure, the Devanagari numeral '१२६६' (Vikram Samvat 1266, corresponding to 1850 CE) appears as the regnal or dating legend. The overall design exhibits the characteristic irregularity of hand-struck coinage, with slight die misalignment and uneven flan edges.
