Reverse description Central medallion containing a stylized face of the deity, likely a representation of Sri or Taleju, depicted in relief within a raised circular frame, surrounded by scrolling ornamental elements and Devanagari legends disposed in the four quadrants of the field. The composition reflects the strong Hindu iconographic tradition of the Malla dynasty, with the deity's face rendered in a frontal, schematic manner. The whole design is bounded by a prominent beaded border at the periphery.
