Beschrijving keerzijde	Four-petalled lotus rosette in bold relief, centred on a raised central boss, with rounded petal lobes radiating outward to fill the coin field. Pellets are placed between each petal in the quadrant fields, echoing the obverse layout. The design is framed by a plain raised rim following the irregular flan edge. No inscription or legend present. The casting quality is typical of Khmer tin-lead coinage produced during the Angkor period.

Aanvullende informatie	The Khmer Empire operated without a formal minted coinage for most of its history — the economy ran largely on barter, rice, cloth, and Chinese cash coins imported through trade. These small tin-lead pieces occupy an uncertain position in the scholarship: Mitchiner catalogued them, but their precise function, whether as low-denomination exchange, temple offerings, or merchant weights, remains genuinely unresolved. The absence of a central hole distinguishes them from the Chinese-influenced holed types circulating simultaneously in the region.
