Reverse description A standing female figure, identified as the goddess Ganga, depicted frontally in a stylised, hieratic pose within a vegetal or jungle setting. She holds a tall-stemmed flower or lotus blossom in one raised hand, her form flanked by schematically rendered foliage or floral elements filling the field. The relief is shallow and struck on an irregular flan, consistent with hammered silver coinage of the early medieval period in the region. Traces of punch marks or ancillary symbols may appear in the margins. The iconography reflects the strong influence of Brahmanical religious tradition within the Harikela kingdom.
