Reverse description Central field displaying a comb-like or trident symbol rendered in crude hammered relief, flanked by abbreviated Devanagari legends. The reverse carries the mint name Nepal and the Vikrama Samvat date 1861, corresponding to the fixed dating convention used throughout the reign of Girvan Yuddha Vikrama Shah. The inscription is arranged across the field in the compact format characteristic of small copper Dam issues, with the legend partially obscured by die misalignment and uneven striking pressure typical of hammered coinage of this series.
