| Reverse description | The reverse displays a densely composed floral mandala design featuring a prominent central downward-pointing triangle, a tantric symbol associated with the goddess Bhavani (Shakti), surrounded by a ring of lobed petal-shaped cartouches each bearing Devanagari inscription characters. The arrangement radiates outward in concentric registers, framed by an interlaced foliate border and an outer ring of raised pellets. The Nepal Sambat regnal date appears distributed within the legend compartments surrounding the central motif. The hammered execution gives the relief an organic, slightly irregular quality characteristic of mid-18th century Kathmandu mint production. |
