Beschrijving keerzijde	Reverse field displaying an indistinct or undefined punch mark, heavily worn and difficult to resolve into a coherent design. The surface exhibits the characteristic rough texture and flan irregularities associated with hammered Mon minor coinage of the Hamsavati period. The mark appears as a series of incuse linear impressions without clearly identifiable iconographic content, consistent with the use of a simple counter-punch or die on this smallest denomination.

Aanvullende informatie	Hamsavati — the Mon kingdom centered at Pegu in what is now lower Myanmar — produced coinage in a tradition distinct from the Burman kingdoms to the north. At 0.05 g, these fractional pieces represent the smallest practical denomination of their monetary system, likely used in textile and spice markets where precise small-unit exchange was necessary. The 265-year span of the kingdom's rule makes attributing individual specimens to specific reigns nearly impossible without hoard context.
