| Obverse description | The obverse is entirely occupied by multiple horizontal lines of Devanagari script arranged across the full field of the coin, referencing the ruler Jaswanth Rao and the issuing authority of Indore. The legends are boldly struck and densely packed, characteristic of the nazarana presentation coinage tradition of central Indian princely states. The text fills the flan from rim to rim with no central device or effigy, the inscriptions serving as the sole decorative and identifying element. The coin exhibits a slightly irregular flan typical of hand-prepared presentation rupees of this period. The rim is plain and unadorned. |
