| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field bearing a boldly rendered Srivatsa symbol — the ancient auspicious endless-knot device associated with Buddhist and Hindu iconography — depicted in raised relief atop a stylized throne or pedestal. Two small pellets or dots appear in the lower field beneath the throne base. The flan is irregular and slightly ragged at the periphery, characteristic of hand-hammered Pyu-period coinage. No legend or inscription is present. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
These fractional silver pieces circulated across the Pyu city-states, a network of urbanized polities that flourished in the Irrawaddy valley long before the Burman kingdom at Pagan consolidated the region. The Pyu were the first people in mainland Southeast Asia known to have struck coinage, and their monetary system shows clear Indic influence transmitted through trade contacts with Bengal and Orissa rather than through any direct political subordination.
At one one-hundredth of a unit, this denomination was genuinely transactional currency — too small for hoarding, too precise for ceremony.
