| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central solar disc with stylized face rendered in the field, flanked on either side by sprays of foliage or crossed branches forming a wreath-like frame. A circular Devanagari legend encircles the central device, running along the inner border. A dotted beaded border frames the entire design. The overall composition is characteristic of the hammered nazarana coinage of the Holkar rulers of Indore. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Tukoji Rao II ruled Indore under increasing British pressure throughout the 1870s, and nazarana issues from his reign were struck not for circulation but as formal presentation pieces — given at durbars, ceremonies, and to British political officers as tokens of loyalty and tribute. The term nazarana itself denotes a gift or offering, and these mohurs occupied a precise diplomatic function rather than any monetary one.
1878 falls just a year after Queen Victoria's proclamation as Empress of India, a political realignment that shifted the formal relationship between the Crown and the princely states in ways the Holkar court would have felt acutely.
