| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse field is entirely occupied by boldly struck Persian script arranged in multiple horizontal registers across the rounded flan. The legend records the regnal year and the name of the ruler, Man Singh II, in the Nastaliq calligraphic style characteristic of Jaipur princely coinage. The inscription fills the field to the periphery, with no border ornament or inner circle. The relief is high and deeply incuse in the hammered tradition, with broad, flowing strokes typical of presentation-quality Nazrana issues. No figurative motif is present; the composition is purely epigraphic. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Nazrana coins were presentation strikings — produced not for commerce but for ceremonial gift-giving at durbars and on auspicious occasions. Man Singh II ascended the Jaipur gaddi in 1922 at age eleven, and the early years of his reign saw these issues produced partly to assert the continuity of Kachhwaha dynastic authority under increasingly assertive British paramountcy. The Nazrana designation commanded a premium even at issue; recipients were nobles and officials, not bazaar traders.
KM#155 is among the scarcer Jaipur copper Nazranas, with surviving examples typically showing minimal wear by nature of their ceremonial function rather than any accident of fate.
