Reverse description Octagonal flan displaying a multi-line Assamese script legend arranged in horizontal registers across the field, recording the Saka Era date of issue. The central inscription reads 'Saka Era 1706/5', with numerals rendered in Assamese script, allowing attribution to specific regnal years within the reign of Gaurinath Singha. Small decorative dot ornaments are visible flanking the legend in the field. The reverse is purely epigraphic in character, following the established Ahom hammered coinage convention of dating issues in the Saka calendar.
