Reverse description The reverse displays multiple lines of Arabic nasta'liq calligraphic legend arranged across the field, divided by a horizontal line separating the main royal and religious legend from the mint and date formula in the lower segment. The upper portion carries the royal titulature of Nāder Shāh, while the lower panel, set off by a double horizontal rule, contains the mint name Kābol and the regnal year. Scattered pellet ornaments punctuate the field. The flan exhibits characteristic hammered surface texture with flow lines consistent with hand-struck Afsharid rupees.
