| Reverse description | The reverse bears a central Arabic-script legend reading 'Krishna zarb Mahisur' (Krishna, struck in Mysore), identifying the issuing ruler and mint city. To the left of the central legend, the denomination '5' is inscribed in European (Latin) numerals. The layout combines Urdu and English elements in a bilingual format characteristic of transitional princely state coinage issued during the early nineteenth century under British suzerainty. |
