| Reverse description | Octagonal hammered silver flan with a dotted border along all eight edges, mirroring the obverse treatment. The field bears a four-line devotional inscription in the Assamese script invoking the divine lotus feet of Hara (Shiva) and Gauri, identifying the king as a devoted servant of the deity. The bold, relief lettering fills the available field in a formal epigraphic arrangement typical of Ahom rupees, with no additional ornamental or figurative elements. |
