| Beschrijving voorzijde | A single punch-marked device featuring a radiate or multi-armed symbol with five arms or rays extending from a central point, characteristic of the Kamboja punch-marked coinage tradition. The design is impressed into the irregular silver flan, with the punched motif occupying the majority of the field. The surface shows the typical rough texture of an ancient cast and punch-marked fabric. The style is archaic and schematic, consistent with early Indian punch-marked silver coinage of the 5th–4th century BC. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Kamboja kingdom occupied territory in the northwestern reaches of the Indian subcontinent — broadly corresponding to parts of modern Afghanistan and Pakistan — and its punch-marked coinage belongs to the earliest documented monetary tradition in South Asia. These fractional silver pieces circulated alongside those of rival janapadas at a time when standardization was more aspiration than reality, and the shatamana weight standard itself varied enough between issuing polities that exchange required careful handling.
