Reverse description The reverse presents a stylized effigy of the goddess Lakshmi standing frontally, wearing a cloak or draped garment, and holding a lotus flower in one hand. A chakra (wheel or disc) is positioned in the upper left area of the field, accompanied by faint traces of the honorific Brahmi legend. To the left of the central figure appears a vertical standard or staff motif. The overall composition is characteristic of the theophanic reverse types employed by the Varman rulers of Kamarupa, reflecting both royal piety and the Vaishnava iconographic tradition.
