| Reverse description | Central field bearing a devotional inscription in Devanagari/Newari script invoking the deity Gorakhnath. The legend 'Shri Shri Shri Gorakshanath' is arranged across the field in bold raised characters, referencing the Shaivite patron deity venerated by the Shah dynasty of Nepal. A stylized dotted or pellet motif, likely representing a sacred symbol or decorative filler, appears within the field. The hammered flan displays characteristic irregularity in shape and surface, typical of hand-struck Nepalese silver fractional coinage of the late 18th century. |
