1/8 Karshapana - Ujjain

Obverse description	Die-struck obverse bearing a bull in profile facing right, rendered in the schematic style characteristic of early Indian coinage. The bull is accompanied by a group of Ujjaini symbols distributed across the field, including the distinctive wheel-and-dot motif associated with the Ujjain region. The flan is irregular and approximately square in form, with the design elements somewhat worn and unevenly struck, typical of this denomination and period. No legend or inscription is present, the iconographic symbols alone serving as denominational and regional identifiers.

Reverse description	Reverse field occupied by a series of Ujjaini symbols punch-struck onto the irregular copper flan, including wheel-and-dot motifs and other geometric devices characteristic of the Ujjain regional coinage of the late Mauryan and post-Mauryan period. The symbols are distributed across the square field without a fixed compositional arrangement, consistent with the informal punch-marking technique used for fractional copper issues of this era. The surface shows natural patination and uneven die coverage, with no inscriptions or legends present.
