| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field bears a stylized figure in the Samatata hammered tradition, depicted in frontal or three-quarter stance with schematically rendered limbs and garment folds indicated by bold incised lines. Attendant symbols and decorative devices, including what appears to be a crescent and subsidiary floral or vegetal motifs, occupy the surrounding field. Brahmi legend śrī bhoga is disposed within or around the central design, referencing an auspicious epithet or associated deity. The irregular, scalloped flan edge and flat, granular surface texture are characteristic of the debased gold coinage of the Khadga rulers of Samatata. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Khadga dynasty ruled Samatata — roughly the eastern Bengal delta, now southeastern Bangladesh — from roughly the mid-seventh century, and Rajabhata was among its later rulers. The dynasty produced gold staters in deliberate imitation of Gupta coinage, a political gesture toward legitimacy at a time when Gupta prestige still carried weight long after the empire's collapse. These issues are rarely encountered outside South Asian institutional collections.
