| Obverse description | Central field depicts a standing deer facing right, with the goddess Lakshmi standing to the right holding a lotus flower; a triratna-style three-arched hill (tri-ratna symbol) is positioned beneath the deer, and a kalasha (ritual water vessel) occupies the space between the deer and Lakshmi. A srivatsa symbol and a vase are also present in the field. The Brahmi legend, reading 'Rajnah Kunindasya Amoghabhutisya Maharajasya' (Great King Amoghabhuti, of the Kunindas), encircles the design. The overall style reflects the indigenous artistic conventions of the early northwestern Indian hill kingdoms. |
