| Obverse description | Central device of a stylized Shah (royal cipher) rendered within a raised incuse circle, the motif occupying the majority of the flat square flan. The design is boldly struck in low relief against a plain field, with the irregular hammered flan exhibiting characteristic beveled edges and surface granularity consistent with billon coinage of the Kathiawar region. |

| Reverse description | A large raised incuse circle dominates the square flan, its interior filled with a series of evenly spaced horizontal parallel striations running across the full width of the circle, creating a distinctive lined or ribbed pattern. The surrounding field is plain and slightly concave, with the coin's irregular hammered square flan showing beveled corners and typical billon surface patination with areas of verdigris. |
