| Reverse description | Central field bearing a Brahmi legend in two lines, reading 'Shri Krishna Raja', identifying the issuing ruler. The inscription is rendered in bold, well-formed Brahmi characters with a pellet border surrounding the legend area. A crescent or subsidiary symbol appears to the left of the inscription. The overall design is rectilinear and compact, consistent with the epigraphic coinage tradition of the Kalachuri dynasty. The flan edges are irregular, characteristic of hammered copper coinage of this era. |
