| Reverse description | The reverse features a Devanagari legend reading 'Anka', arranged centrally within the field in a stylized manner characteristic of Chola-period epigraphy. The inscription is boldly struck, with the characters occupying the majority of the available flan area. The lettering is rendered in an archaic Grantha-influenced Devanagari style consistent with South Indian script conventions of the late 10th to mid-11th century. The surrounding field is plain, with no additional decorative elements or symbols present. |
