| Beschrijving voorzijde | Overstruck upon the bust of Western Satrap king Nahapana, the underlying host coin's portrait remaining partially visible beneath the countermark. Superimposed upon the field are the characteristic Satavahana symbols: a three-arched hill (giri) with crescent above, a water (river) symbol below, and the Andhra Satavahana dynastic symbol to the upper left. The Brahmi legend encircles the design in the surrounding field, identifying the issuing authority. The striking is typical of hammered Indian coinage of the period, with irregular flan edges and moderately well-centred devices. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse displays the overstruck design featuring a hill motif accompanied by Ujjain symbols — characteristic four-pellet-in-cross or ring-and-dot devices — distributed across the field. The Tamil legend is present in the surrounding area, identifying the issuing ruler. The underlying reverse type of the original Nahapana drachm, typically bearing a Kharoshthi legend and arrow-and-thunderbolt devices, remains partially discernible beneath the overstrike. The overall execution is consistent with the Satavahana practice of overstruck reissuance of captured enemy coinage as a statement of political and military dominance. |
