Obverse lettering (Translation: Maharaja Sri Ganendra)
Reverse description Reverse field bearing a Brahmi legend arranged across the die in the angular, early script characteristic of northern Indian coinage of the Naga period. The inscription, reading 'Maharaja Sri Ganendra' in Brahmi characters, is the primary design element, with letters struck in shallow but bold relief across the irregular flan. The epigraphic style is consistent with early 4th-century Brahmi as documented on Naga dynastic issues. The field shows the rough, uneven surface typical of primitive hammered bronze coinage of this era.
