| Reverse description | Central field displays the Devanagari legend 'छत्रपति' (Chhatrapati), the Maratha royal title meaning 'Lord of the Umbrella', inscribed in bold raised characters across the flan. A border of small pellets or dots is visible along a portion of the rim, a decorative feature common to Thanjavur-Maratha copper coinage. The script is characteristic of the Maratha chancery tradition, and the overall execution reflects the hand-struck nature of the issue. The reverse serves as a direct dynastic attribution, invoking the sovereign title of the Maratha rulers of Thanjavur. |
