| Obverse description | A stylized royal archer is depicted in left-facing profile, rendered in the characteristic schematic idiom of early medieval Indian coinage. The figure draws a bow held to the left, with an arrow nocked and raised, the arms extended in a shooting posture. The treatment of the body is linear and hieratic, consistent with the artistic conventions of the Kamarupa Varman dynasty. The field around the figure is plain, and the irregular flan exhibits the characteristic surface of a hand-struck gold issue. |
