| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central wreath of laurel and palm fronds enclosing the denomination inscription, with the date 1840 prominently displayed in the exergue below. The legend 'EAST INDIA COMPANY' arcs around the upper periphery in Latin characters, while the denomination is expressed bilingually with 'ONE RUPEE' in Latin script and 'یک روپیے' in Persian script within the wreath. A large circular countermark, applied post-issue circa 1880–1890, is visible at the centre of the reverse field, bearing Arabic script identifying the issuing authority of Ra's Bab al-Mandab. The overall reverse design is characteristic of the standard William Wyon-engraved East India Company rupee series. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Ra's Bab al-Mandab was a minor British-administered post at the southern entrance to the Red Sea, and this rupee circulates under that issuer designation as part of the broader East India Company coinage reorganization of 1840 — the same year the Company standardized the rupee across its Indian territories following the abolition of the old Presidency coinages. The KM#369.1 attribution places it within the Calcutta or Bombay striking of that transitional series rather than any locally produced issue.
