Obverse description Central round perforation surrounded by Devanagari inscription arranged in four quadrants within a plain inner circle. The legend reads 'श्री श्री श्री पृथ्वी वीर विक्रम', invoking the royal title and name of King Prithvi Bir Bikram Shah. The design is enclosed within a dotted beaded border, characteristic of Nepalese hammered emergency token coinage. The flat, unadorned field and crude strike reflect the utilitarian nature of this issue. Overall style is consistent with late 19th-century Nepalese token production.
