| Reverse description | Plain or nearly plain reverse field typical of fractional Mauryan copper punch-marked coinage, exhibiting a largely flat, undecorated surface with a single small circular counterstamp or banker's mark visible slightly left of centre. The flan surface is pitted and granular with a uniform brown patina and scattered green cuprite encrustations. The edges remain rough and irregular, consistent with a cast and hand-cut flan. No additional symbols or legends are present. |
