Obverse description Central field bears the Nagari monogram 'Sa Ga' (सा गा), the royal cipher of Sayaji Rao III, flanked to the left by a scimitar (sword) with the blade curving upward. The design is rendered in a bold, flat relief characteristic of Baroda princely coinage of the period. No additional legend or border ornament surrounds the central device.

Reverse description Central field displays a large Nagari or cursive character, likely a stylized royal symbol or denomination indicator, accompanied by a cluster of pellets arranged in a triangular grouping to the lower right. The design occupies most of the flan with minimal border, consistent with the simple engraving style of late 19th-century Baroda small silver coinage. The surface shows a slightly irregular flan edge typical of this issue.
