Reverse description Central device features a stylised tree or plant motif, possibly a sacred Bodhi or lotus stem, rising vertically from a row of pellets arranged in a crescent or arc at the base, evoking a lunar symbol. Flanking the central motif are scrolling foliate or flame-like decorative elements. The entire composition is enclosed within a beaded inner border, consistent with the artistic conventions of early Harikela silver coinage. The hammered flan is irregular in outline, with a plain raised rim and a lightly worn surface typical of circulated examples of this type.
