| Beschrijving keerzijde | 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. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Jafarabad was a small coastal dependency of Janjira, itself an unusual survivor among Indian princely states — uniquely ruled by the Sidi, an Afro-Arab dynasty whose ancestors arrived as Abyssinian naval commanders in Mughal service and gradually seized autonomous control of the Konkan coast. The Janjira Sidis resisted Maratha pressure, Portuguese encroachment, and later British renegotiation of their status across several centuries, which explains the extraordinary date range attributed to this type.
Billon coinage of this weight class was essentially fiduciary from the start, with silver content low enough that the metal value rarely approached face value.
