| 裏面の説明 | The reverse presents a largely plain, irregular hammered silver surface with faint residual impressions and surface patination consistent with ancient burial and circulation. Faint traces of punch marks are discernible, though heavily worn and largely indistinct, as is typical of the counter-stamped or incuse reverse faces common to Janapada punch-marked coinage. The surface shows natural oxidation and minor surface porosity characteristic of ancient silver alloy of this period. |

The Kuru Janapadas issued punch-marked coinage during a period when the subcontinent's monetary system was still being negotiated between barter, weighed bullion, and struck currency. The Kuru territory, centered around the upper Gangetic plain near modern Kurukshetra, was already in political decline by the fifth century BC — squeezed between the expanding Magadha empire to the east and shifting tribal confederacies to the northwest. That their coinage survived at all in identifiable series is largely due to the punch-mark system's reliance on banker's marks, which allow modern attribution even without inscriptions.
