Millies (1871:112), Mitchiner & Yih (2013:37), and Robinson (2015) all concurred that the inscribed date is AH 1162 (= AD 1749), which corresponds to the reign of Mahmud Badaruddin I Jayo Wikramo (1724–1757) in the Palembang Sultanate.
Parts of the inscription are illegible and there are multiple suggestion for their reading.

Millies was not certain whether the initial part reads Al-Sultan السلطان or falus فلوس . This reading is reproduced by Robinson (2015). Based on examination of numerous specimen, Mitchiner & Yih (2013:37) suggested that the initial part is 'alamat علامت.
Robinson (2015) provided the following variants:
