Reverse description Two standing figures in classical dress face one another in the central field: a smaller figure on the left, representing Robert Clive, extends a tall sceptre topped with a serpent finial toward a taller, partially draped figure on the right representing Mir Jafar, who holds a staff surmounted by a lion. Between them at their feet rests a shield and cornucopia. The circular legend runs within a beaded border, with a second line of text and the Roman numeral date in the exergue.
