| Obverse description | Octagonal hammered silver flan enclosed by a beaded border running along all eight sides. The field is entirely occupied by four horizontal lines of Assamese script in bold relief, conveying the royal inscription attributing the king's lineage to Bhagadatta and proclaiming the reign of Bharatha Simha. A small decorative motif appears at the base of the inscription field. The lettering is deeply struck and dominates the entire surface with no pictorial device. |
