Reverse description Central field displays multi-line Devanagari inscriptions arranged within a square panel, recording the royal legend and regnal references associated with Jaya Prakash Malla. A decorative device, likely a floral or symbolic motif, appears at the top of the central panel. The inscription panel is enclosed by an elaborate scalloped and lobed border with scrollwork and dot embellishments in the outer ring, consistent with the hammered silver coinage of the Malla dynasty of Kathmandu. The coin exhibits the characteristic irregular flan and bold relief of hand-struck Nepalese mohars of the eighteenth century.
