| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents a broad, lightly struck field on an irregular billon flan, with a prominent Nagari device occupying the central area of the die. The design, rendered in low to medium relief, shows a stylized figure or symbolic motif — consistent with the iconographic traditions of Tomara anonymous issues — accompanied by partial legend remnants around the device. Surface porosity and die wear obscure full legibility, but the general layout conforms to known Gwalior Tomara jital types. The flat, undecorated margins are typical of hammered coinage produced at provincial Indian mints of the 15th century. |

The Tomara rulers of Gwalior occupied an awkward political position through much of the fifteenth century — nominally subordinate to the Sultanate of Delhi yet functionally autonomous, issuing their own coinage as a quiet assertion of that independence. Anonymous billon issues like this falus complicate attribution; without a ruler's name, dating relies largely on hoard context and typological sequence rather than inscription.
By 1473, Gwalior was under Man Singh Tomar, whose reign would prove the dynasty's cultural peak before the Lodis finally took the fort in 1516.
