Copperplate , or English round hand , is a style of calligraphy calligraphic writing, using a sharp pointed pen nib nib instead of the flat nib used in most calligraphic writing. Its name comes from the fact that the copybooks from which students learned it were printed from etched copper plates. ref http www.yourdictionary.com copperplate copperplates definition 4 ref Copperplate script was prevalent in the 19th century, but was used as early as in the 16th century in Europe. As a result, the term copperplate is mostly used to refer to any old fashioned, tidy handwriting. This style of calligraphy is different from that produced by angled nibs in that the thickness of the stroke is determined by the pressure applied when writing, instead of nib angle in relation to the writing surface. All copperplate forms minuscules, majuscules, numbers, and punctuation are written at a letter slant of 55 degrees from the horizontal. ref Winters, Eleanor Mastering Copperplate A Step by Step Manual for Calligraphers. Watson Guptill, NY, 1989 ref In Australia in the 1980s, the state of Victoria Australia Victoria prescribed a new form of handwriting which lacked the loops and curious capital letter forms that appear in standard cursive to be taught to children in government schools.

The Harsola copperplate grants of 949 CE are one of the most important documents that shed light on origin of the Paramara dynasty, and hence on the origin of Rajputs .
