Reverse description Reverse field displaying the regnal or mint formula in Nastaliq script, with multiple lines of Arabic-script legends occupying the central field. The inscription likely records the mint name and/or regal year in the Hijri calendar. The strike is typical of hammered copper issues from the Gwalior Fort mint, with irregular flan edges and uneven surface texture consistent with the period of joint authority under Daulat Rao Scindia.
