| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field displays a stylized floral or flame motif, likely a decorative rendering of a lotus or the symbol of Sri, surrounded by Pracalit script characters arranged symmetrically in the four quadrants. The design is enclosed within a beaded border consistent with Nepalese Malla-period coinage conventions. The overall composition reflects the sacred iconographic vocabulary characteristic of late Malla dynasty silver issues. |

Jaya Prakash Malla ruled Kathmandu during the final turbulent decades of the Malla dynasty, a period of near-constant conflict among the three rival valley kingdoms of Kathmandu, Patan, and Bhaktapur. He made the catastrophic political miscalculation of appealing to Prithvi Narayan Shah of Gorkha for military assistance against his neighbors — effectively inviting in the force that would extinguish his own dynasty. Kathmandu fell in 1768, and Jaya Prakash fled to Patan, dying shortly after its capture.
Silver fractional issues from his reign are poorly documented in terms of die varieties, but surviving examples tend to show uneven flan preparation consistent with the small workshops supplying the Kathmandu mint at mid-century.
