| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents a similarly irregular, broadly flat cast surface with faint undulating texture and scattered surface irregularities resulting from the primitive casting process. No formal inscriptions, devices, or decorative motifs are discernible, consistent with the known characteristics of this anonymous utilitarian issue. The surface displays dark patination and minor corrosion typical of the copper-iron alloy composition, with some areas showing slight relief variations inherent to hand-cast production. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The "Black Paisa" designation comes not from official nomenclature but from the coin's appearance in circulation — the copper-iron alloy darkens aggressively with handling, producing a surface patina that distinguishes these pieces from standard copper issues at a glance. The magnetic response varies considerably across examples, reflecting inconsistent iron content in the alloy mix, a function of the relatively crude smelting practices at the Nepalese mints during this period.
The eighty-year date range assigned to this type reflects genuine attribution uncertainty rather than a long production run.
