| Reverse description | The reverse presents multiple lines of Nastaliq Arabic script divided by a cruciform arrangement, a distinctive layout associated with Mughal provincial copper coinage of this era. The legends, struck in bold relief across the flan, reference the mint name Bhilwara and regnal information. The coin's irregular flan edges and die wear are consistent with hand-hammered production at a provincial mint. The field shows natural porosity and patination typical of circulated copper coinage from the mid-eighteenth century. Overall, the reverse composition follows the standard format for Mewar state copper issues struck in the name of the Mughal emperor. |
