| 背面描述 | Central field displays the denomination 'ONE RUPEE' in two lines, with 'INDIA' below and the date '1885' in the exergue area, all surrounded by an elaborate wreath of scrolling floral and foliate ornaments rendered in high relief. The decorative border features intertwining acanthus-like leaves, blossoms, and vegetal scrollwork filling the entire reverse field, with small floral rosettes at the base. A beaded inner border frames the design against the coin's rim. The overall composition reflects the ornate engraving style characteristic of British Indian rupees struck under the Victoria Empress series. |

Obock was a French-administered port on the Gulf of Aden, and its monetary situation was improvised from the start. Rather than strike original coinage, the territory counterstamped existing British Indian rupees — the dominant trade coin of the region — with a simple punch to legitimize them for local circulation. The practice was pragmatic: the infrastructure to mint original silver simply didn't exist in a territory that France never fully developed before transferring administrative focus to Djibouti in the 1890s.
By the time the later counterstamps were applied, Obock itself had been largely abandoned as a colonial center.
