正面描述 Standing figure of the king rendered in indigenous Sinhalese style, depicted frontally and holding a flower in one hand. The design features a stylized architectural or vegetal motif below and around the royal figure, with a beaded border encircling the flan. The engraving is bold and deeply struck in the traditional South Asian indigenous manner, characteristic of Polonnaruwa-period coinage.

背面描述 Nagari legend filling the field, arranged in multiple lines across the coin's surface. The inscription reads 'Sri Parakramabahu,' identifying the issuing ruler Parākramabāhu I. The characters are deeply incuse and rendered in the angular Nagari script style typical of 12th-century Sri Lankan coinage, with a beaded border encircling the inscription.

附加信息

Parākramabāhu I ruled from Polonnaruwa during what is considered the last great consolidation of Sinhalese power in medieval Sri Lanka, unifying three fractious kingdoms by 1153 after decades of civil conflict. His reign funded massive irrigation works — the Parakrama Samudra reservoir remains one of the largest ancient man-made bodies of water in the world — and a coinage that circulated through a genuinely monetized agrarian economy, not merely as ceremonial issue.

The massa denomination derives from the ancient Indian māṣa weight standard, its persistence into 12th-century Ceylon reflecting deep subcontinental commercial ties that outlasted any single political authority.
