| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse displays the host coin's original hammered surface in a heavily worn and corroded state, with fragmentary Arabic script visible along the left and lower margins of the irregular flan. The central field is largely plain and pitted, with traces of a possible legend or decorative border surviving near the rim. The granular copper surface exhibits extensive verdigris patination in areas, and the overall fabric retains the characteristic irregular outline of a hand-struck falus. No complete inscription is legible due to the combination of wear, corrosion, and the deformation caused by the countermarking process. |

Hisar, a fortified city in what is now Haryana, India, issued countermarked copper falus during the period of regional fragmentation that followed Mughal decline — local administrators and city authorities asserting fiscal control over coinage already in circulation rather than striking fresh. The countermark effectively re-monetized existing copper, validating it for local exchange under new authority.
Zeno catalog entry 6434 documents the type with reasonable specificity, but attribution of Hisar municipal issues remains contested among specialists working the late Mughal and early colonial transitional period.
