1/4 Mohar - Mahindra Simha

Beschrijving voorzijde	Central field bearing a stylized trident (trishula), the sacred emblem of Shiva, rendered in relief against a densely inscribed field. Devotional and royal legends in Devanagari script surround and intersperse the central device, filling the flan in the characteristic Nepalese hammered style. The design is bounded by an irregular, unraised rim typical of hand-struck Nepalese coinage of the early 18th century.

Beschrijving keerzijde	The reverse features a dense arrangement of Devanagari inscriptions occupying the central and surrounding fields, recording the royal name and regnal titles of King Mahindra Simha of Kathmandu. A decorative dotted border encircles the entire design, a hallmark of Nepalese mohar coinage of this period. The legends are struck in the compact, angular Nepalese Devanagari script characteristic of early 18th-century hammered silver issues from the Kathmandu Valley.
