| Reverse description | A six-armed radiate symbol, tentatively attributed to the Magadhan tradition, centrally placed on the flan with each arm extending outward from a central pellet or annulet. The arms are rendered in bold punch-marked strokes and are evenly spaced, creating a wheel- or star-like appearance. Additional small punched symbols or subsidiary marks may appear in the surrounding field. No inscription or legend is present, consistent with punch-marked coinage of the early Janapada period. |
