| Reverse description | The reverse bears the distinctive Ujjain or Satavahana symbol, comprising four large globular orbs arranged at the cardinal points and connected by two crossing lines that intersect at the centre of the field. This cruciform device, sometimes referred to as the 'chaturmukha' or four-dot symbol, is a hallmark of Satavahana dynastic coinage and appears prominently struck on the irregular flan. The field around the symbol is plain, with no additional legend or border decoration. |
