| Reverse description | Central field displaying the Sri symbol (श्री) in Devanagari script to the upper left, flanked by a prominent trident symbol — the dynastic emblem of regent Baija Bai — occupying the centre. The regnal year 23 appears to the right in Devanagari numerals. Additional legend below references the mint name Lashkar, though this element falls off the flan. The composition of Devanagari and trident motif reflects the syncretic Maratha-Mughal numismatic tradition of Gwalior. |
