| Reverse description | The reverse bears a multi-line Persian or Urdu inscription in Nastaliq script, referencing both Queen Victoria and the ruling prince Takhat Singh, affirming the dual authority recognized on Jodhpur coinage of this period. The katar (dagger) mint mark of the Katar mint is present, serving as the primary mint identifier. The inscription is arranged across the field in typical Indian princely state fashion, with the legends occupying most of the coin's surface. The flan is rough and hand-struck, consistent with local copper coinage production of the mid-nineteenth century. |
