Reverse description Irregular hammered copper flan displaying a geometric compartmentalized design formed by a bold intersecting grid. Within the resulting cells appear stylized symbols including a prominent teardrop or leaf-shaped device, a small square with a central pellet, and angular decorative elements in the corners, all characteristic of the crude but distinctive iconographic vocabulary of Bhutanese Deb-period copper coinage. The field is entirely occupied by the design with no surrounding legend.
