背面描述	The reverse displays the Mysore regnal year in the AM (Anno Mauludi) calendar rendered in Arabic numerals, accompanied by the mint name 'Farrukhi' in Arabic script. The legends are arranged within the small circular field, with numerals above and the mint inscription below, all in a bold calligraphic style. The granular rim frames the design, consistent with the hammered technique employed for Tipu Sultan's gold fanams.

附加信息	Tipu Sultan introduced a comprehensive monetary reform shortly after consolidating power following Hyder Ali's death in 1782, replacing the existing coinage with a new system tied to the Islamic calendar and issuing from named mints across his kingdom. The Farrukhi mint — one of several he established — was active for a narrow window in the late 1780s before the pressures of successive Anglo-Mysore wars disrupted normal administration. At 0.38 g, the fanam was the smallest denomination in his gold series, used in everyday petty transactions across a sultanate that was, at this moment, still near the peak of its power.
