Reverse description Abstract, highly stylized depiction of the goddess Ardoxsho seated facing, rendered in a degenerate post-Kushan artistic style with bold, simplified forms. The goddess is shown in a frontal posture with schematic drapery and attributes reduced to angular and curvilinear shapes. A Brahmi legend runs to the right and left of the central figure, reading 'Sri Yinaya' to the right and 'Ditya' to the left, together forming the royal name Sri Yinayaditya. The field is filled with pellet and floral ornaments consistent with the regional coinage tradition of 5th-century Kashmir and the northwestern Indian subcontinent.
