| Obverse description | Hammered silver flan bearing two lines of Persian calligraphy in Naskh script separated by a horizontal line across the field. The upper register contains the opening words of the royal couplet (saya-e-fazle elah), while the lower register completes the verse. A trident symbol and a three-petalled lotus mint mark appear within the field as Maratha control marks, identifying the issuing authority within the Mughal imperial coinage framework. |
