Written in Devanagari and Perso-Arabic scripts. Can make out ‘Raja Shri Takht Singh ji ? Marwar Raj ? Maharaji dhiraj?
Think this is the seal of Takht Singh, Maharaja of Jodhpur from 1843-1873. Jodhpur was a princely state in Rajasthan. Marwar is that part of Rajasthan. [Information provided by Danika Parikh, Department of Archaeology]
