| Reverse description | Central device depicts a stylised floral motif, possibly a lotus or conventional flower form, prominently placed in the field. To the lower portion of the field, a numeral in Eastern Arabic script is visible, likely indicating a regnal or mint identifier. Decorative foliate or spray elements appear along the margins, echoing the Mughal artistic vocabulary found on contemporary princely state issues. The surface is lightly worn with the hammered flan showing characteristic irregularity. The design is simple and heraldic in composition, consistent with the reduced-format rupees of Malerkotla. |
