Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse presents a highly stylised and schematically rendered standing figure, conventionally interpreted as a royal effigy, occupying the central field in the debased Kashmiri hammered style. The design is executed with bold but coarsely defined relief elements, with the lower portion of the figure obscured or off-flan, accounting for the partial Nagari legend. The inscription 'Gupta' appears partially visible, with the remainder running beyond the flan edge. The overall field is heavily textured with die-flow marks typical of this series, and the green patina obscures finer details.

Aanvullende informatie

Didda was regent for her son Abhimanyu II before eventually ruling Kashmir outright — one of the few women to hold genuine sovereign authority in early medieval South Asia. This joint issue with her husband Kshemagupta dates to the years immediately before his death in 958, placing it in a narrow window of co-regnal coinage that effectively ended with him. Didda would go on to dominate Kashmiri politics for another four decades, but the paired issues belong strictly to this compressed period.
