Beschrijving keerzijde Central device comprising a chaitya (three-arched hill or Buddhist stupa symbol) set above a river, flanked by a crescent moon to the upper left and a solar symbol to the upper right, all within a Brahmi legend encircling the entire field. The reverse composition follows the standard Western Satrap iconographic formula, with the sacred hill motif serving as the focal religious symbol. The surrounding Brahmi inscription names the issuing ruler in the conventional formulaic manner. The overall die work is typical of the schematic, late-phase Bombay fabric production.

Aanvullende informatie

Dāmasena ruled as one of the later Western Satraps at a moment when the dynasty was contracting under sustained Sātavāhana pressure from the Deccan. His reign produced relatively few recorded coin types, and the "Bombay Fabric" designation reflects a distinct flan preparation and die style associated with a particular workshop tradition — finer, thinner, and more carefully produced than the debased issues that would characterize the dynasty's final decades under his successors.
