Reverse description The reverse displays a prominent six-arched hill symbol (representing the sacred mountain) occupying the lower central field, rendered as a stepped tri-arched or six-arch form with a railed sacred tree (Bodhi or pipal) rising above it. To the right of the hill stands a well-formed swastika symbol, an auspicious emblem common on early Indian coinage. Additional secondary symbols, including what appear to be a river or water motif and geometric devices, populate the surrounding field. The overall composition reflects the standard symbolic iconography of Kuninda dynastic coinage.
