| Obverse description | Crudely hammered copper flan bearing bold Arabic calligraphic legends arranged across the field in two or more lines. The inscription references the mint epithet 'Dar al-aman' (Abode of Peace), associated with Agra, accompanied by the regnal year rendered in Eastern Arabic numerals. The strike is irregular, characteristic of early Mughal hammered coinage, with the legend partially off-flan due to the thick, dumpy planchet. The field is unadorned, with no decorative border or ornamental devices. |
