| Reversbeschreibung | The reverse likewise fills the entire field with a multi-line Arabic inscription in bold Naskh-style relief, stating the denomination, mint location, and Hijri date. The legend is arranged in five horizontal lines, reading '4 Lariat, struck in Malé, Maldives, 1331' with the Hijri numeral ١٣٣١ prominently displayed at the base of the coin. The deeply incised lettering and plain flat field are consistent with the obverse, giving the coin a uniform calligraphic character on both sides. No ornamental border or exergual line is present, with the script itself serving as the sole decorative and informational element. |

Shamsuddeen III ruled the Maldives as Sultan under British protection, and coinage of this period was struck to satisfy the Resident Commissioner's push for a standardized currency across the atolls, where cowrie shells had served as the dominant small exchange medium well into the late nineteenth century. The 1913 bronze issues represent the transitional moment when that system was being formally displaced.
KM#42 is among the more obscure entries in Maldivian numismatics, with limited documentation on where these pieces were physically struck — almost certainly contracted out, as the islands had no mint of their own.
