Reverse description Hammered silver flan displaying two lines of Persian calligraphy in Naskh script divided by a horizontal line across the field. The upper register records the regnal year and the word zarb (struck), while the lower register notes the mint epithet. A floral mint mark appears within the field as a Maratha control device, consistent with Maratha-issued rupees struck in the name of the Mughal emperor Shah Alam II.
