Reverse description Central field displays a multi-line Arabic legend in Nastaliq script arranged in horizontal registers across the flan, identifying the issuing ruler Maharaja Madho Rao Scindia Bahadur and the mint seat Darul Khilafa Shahjahanabad. The bold calligraphic inscription fills the field in the characteristic style of Lashkar Mint gold coinage. A beaded border frames the legend. The reverse continues the Mughal-derived epigraphic tradition, with no figurative imagery, placing full emphasis on the dynastic and geographic identification of the issuing authority.
