| 裏面の説明 | Central device depicting a Shiva linga rendered as a large circular form with surrounding crescent or yoni base, boldly struck in the field. Persian inscription appears in the surrounding area, consistent with the bilingual administrative conventions of Malwa princely states under Maratha suzerainty. The overall design is characteristic of the syncretistic religious and political iconography of the Vagh Rajas of Mehidpur. |

The Vagh Rajas designation refers to a collateral line within the Holkar dynasty's sphere of influence at Mehidpur, a town on the Sipra River that served as a significant Maratha stronghold in Malwa. Mehidpur is better known historically as the site of the 1817 battle in which British East India Company forces under General Hislop decisively defeated Malhar Rao Holkar II, effectively ending Holkar military independence. That defeat marks the terminal date of this issue.
The weight of nearly 15 grams is notably heavy for a paisa of this region and period, suggesting these were struck to a local standard rather than any imperial norm.
