| Obverse description | Central field bears a multi-line Urdu and Nagari inscription in bold calligraphic script, reading 'Shri Diwan' in Devanagari at the base. The legends are arranged horizontally across the flan in successive lines, enclosed within a beaded border that follows the coin's circular periphery. The inscription style is characteristic of the Junagadh mint, with dense, flowing strokes typical of the regional calligraphic tradition. The overall design is flat and epigraphic, with no figurative elements, giving the piece a distinctly Islamic aesthetic. |
