| Reverse description | A large Ujjain symbol — comprising a central circle with four radiating arms each terminating in a circle — dominates the field, rendered in a bold and deeply incuse style. Four smaller subsidiary symbols are distributed in the quadrants surrounding the central Ujjain motif, a common arrangement on early Deccan punch-marked and cast coinage. The overall composition is characteristic of Satavahana-era religious and dynastic iconography, with the symbols likely carrying cosmological significance. |
