| Obverse description | Broad flan hammered silver rupee struck in the name of Mughal Emperor Shah Alam II. The obverse field displays multiple lines of Persian (Nastaliq) script legend arranged in horizontal registers across the flan, typical of the regal formula invoking the emperor's name and titles. The irregular flan and bold hand-struck lettering are characteristic of the nazarana presentation issue style, with the field exhibiting the slightly uneven surface and variable relief inherent to hammered coinage of this period. |
