| Obverse description | Goddess Lakshmi depicted facing in a highly stylised, flattened hammered relief, seated frontally in the lotus position with arms outstretched. The figure is adorned with schematic jewellery and flanked by foliate and beaded ornamental elements filling the field. The design is rendered in the characteristic abstracted Gahadavala artistic tradition, with bold raised lines and pellet detailing framing the central deity. |
