| Reverse description | Plain, largely uninscribed reverse with a rough, unworked surface typical of Mauryan punch-marked copper fractions. A faint single incuse punch mark — possibly a geometric or symbolic device — is visible near the lower centre of the flan, consistent with a reverse banker's mark or secondary validation punch. The field is otherwise flat and featureless, covered with an even layer of dark olive and green patina indicative of prolonged burial. The irregular edges of the hand-cut flan are clearly visible, and the surface texture is coarse and granular throughout. |
