背面描述	Hammered copper field displaying the Persian legend 'ارجن پال' (Arjan Pal) in raised relief, identifying the issuing ruler Arjan Pal of Karauli. The inscription is arranged across the central field in the bold, somewhat crude calligraphic style characteristic of Karauli princely state coinage. The flan is irregular in outline, typical of hand-struck issues from this mint, with uneven surfaces and die-wear evident in the softer areas of the legend. The overall execution reflects the provincial mint tradition of the late nineteenth-century Rajputana states.

附加信息	Karauli was among the smaller Rajput princely states that retained minting rights under British paramountcy, producing copper coinage largely for local bazaar circulation well into the 1880s. The takka denomination served petty trade in a region where British Imperial coinage had not yet fully displaced indigenous issues. Arjan Pal's reign saw no dramatic political rupture, but the minting authority itself was already an anachronism — the broader standardization push under the Government of India would render most such state mints obsolete within a generation.
