Reverse description Central motif consists of a Buddhist stupa rendered as a six-arched hill, flanked by an Indradhvaja (standard of Indra) and surrounded by auxiliary sacred symbols including a swastika, a nandipada (bull's hoof print), and a railed tree (Bodhi tree enclosure). A river is depicted in the lower field beneath the stupa. The encircling Brahmi legend reads 'Rajnah Kunindasya Amoghabhutisya Maharajasya,' mirroring the obverse inscription. The composition reflects the syncretic Buddhist and Hindu iconographic vocabulary characteristic of Kuninda coinage.
