Reverse description A horseman is depicted in right-facing profile, seated upon a horse in a dynamic posture characteristic of late Rajput numismatic iconography. The rider and mount are rendered in bold, schematic relief typical of hammered billon jitals of the Chahamana series. A Nagari legend reading 'Sri Prithvi Raja Deva' encircles the central equestrian device, distributed around the periphery of the field. The overall composition follows the established bull-and-horseman type associated with Prithviraj III and his predecessors.
