| Reverse description | A high-relief depiction of the Hindu goddess Kali, shown in a dynamic frontal pose with multiple arms outstretched, adorned with an elaborate crown, large earrings, beaded necklaces, and bangles. One hand raises a curved sword, another holds a severed head, while a third hand is extended in a gesture of blessing. The figure is richly detailed with traditional iconographic attributes rendered in fine sculptural relief. In the lower exergue, the name KALI is inscribed in stylised Devanagari script characters, framed by decorative foliate motifs, with a textured rope-like border encircling the entire composition. |
