Tye (1995) notes the composition as “white appearance billon, and perhaps contains between 30% and 8% silver”. It is likely that the white appearance is due to the inclusion of lead in the alloy.

There are considerable metallic variations among this coin type including coins that appear substantially silver, mostly copper, or copper-lead alloy in which raised areas appear copper-brown and fields appear greenish-white.

Tye (1995, p. 119) depicts subtype type 185.1 with a short vertical stroke on the jhula (perhaps a “1”), short muzzle and horns, and no necklace; and subtype 185.2 with the numeral 9 on the jhula, an elongated muzzle with terminal stroke, longer horns and pellet necklace. Other variants in solver-appearing coins include a bull with a second eye and the trishula may be chandrabindu-shaped with a rounded crescent moon (chandra) below a rounded bindu (dot), or a squared arch below a short vertical stroke with greater resemblance to a traditional trident shape. Among copper-appearing coins, the jhula may contain a “1”, a “9” or other symbol or have a delicate inner border doubling the outer border, the bull may have one or two eyes, the necklace may have a star or pellet, both or neither. The trishul may be elongated with part of the hilt, of the chandrabindu type, or simple squared type. The horse may have three pellets below the back strap or none.
