| Reverse description | Hammered silver field divided by a horizontal line into two registers, each containing Arabic Nastaliq legends. The upper register records the regnal year formula and auspicious epithet, while the lower register bears the mint name Katak (Cuttack), identifying the place of issue. Pellet borders and granular surface texture are visible across the flan, consistent with the hammered coinage of the Maratha-controlled Cuttack mint operating in the name of the Mughal emperor. The strike is moderately well-centred with some weakness at the margins. |
