| Obverse description | Central field features a stag standing right, its elaborate antlers prominently displayed and surmounted by a Buddhist relic symbol (Lakshmi or Chaitya motif). To the right of the stag stands a female figure, likely a goddess, holding a branch or plant stem. To the left of the stag a square symbol or punch mark is visible in the field, with additional small devices including a dotted circle and a triangular symbol below the stag's body. The entire design is enclosed by a border of Brahmi legend reading the royal title and name of King Amoghabhuti of the Kuninda dynasty, rendered in a flowing archaic script around the full circumference. |
