The coin features the emperor's name and title in Persian script on one side, and a stylized representation of a lion on the other. The lion was a symbol of the Mughal Empire and was often featured on coins of the time. The coin was made of silver and weighed 11.48 grams, which was a standard weight for rupee coins of the era. Despite its age, this coin remains a popular collector's item among numismatists and historians interested in the Mughal Empire.
