| Reverse description | Hammered field displaying a bold Tibetan Uchen script inscription arranged in horizontal registers divided by ruled lines, typical of Bhutanese Deb-period coinage. The characters are deeply struck but uneven due to the hand-hammered technique, with visible flan irregularities at the periphery. The layout follows the standard multi-register format used consistently across the KM#7 series, with the central field occupying the majority of the flan. |
