| Reverse description | The reverse presents a multi-register calligraphic composition in raised naskh/nasta'liq script arranged within a rectangular cartouche bordered by a dotted inner frame. The uppermost register contains the word 'Allah' (الله), the central register bears the royal invocation 'Khallad Allah mulkahu' (خلد الله ملکه, 'May God perpetuate his reign') alongside the mint name 'Peshawar' (پشاور), and the lower register records the AH regnal year '1151' (corresponding to 1739 CE). Floral and geometric ornamental devices fill the interstices between the registers, consistent with Afsharid die-cutting conventions. The hammered flan shows slight irregular margins typical of hand-struck coinage of the period. |
