Reverse description The reverse depicts a stylized fire altar (dhvaja or yajna-vedi) rendered in low relief at the centre of the field, flanked by attendant elements consistent with Brahmanical iconographic convention. The Nagari letter 'Sri', an auspicious honorific epithet, appears prominently in the field adjacent to the altar. The composition is enclosed within a pellet border matching the obverse, and the overall design reflects the religious and dynastic symbolism characteristic of Chauhan Rajput copper coinage of the Ranthambore period.
