| Beschrijving voorzijde | Standing royal figure depicted in frontal or three-quarter pose, rendered in the characteristic Gupta artistic style typical of early 5th-century copper coinage. The figure appears to be the king or a deity, shown in a commanding stance with attendant regalia. The surface exhibits typical patination and flan irregularity consistent with hammered copper production of the Gupta period. Details are worn but retain sufficient definition to identify the iconographic type. The field surrounding the central figure is plain, with no clearly legible border inscription visible. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse displays a Brahmi legend identifying the issuing monarch, arranged in two or more lines across the field. The inscription reads 'Kumara Gupta' in Brahmi characters, referencing Kumaragupta I, the Gupta emperor who reigned circa 415–455 CE. A decorative motif, possibly a chhatra (royal parasol) or crescent device, appears above or alongside the legend, giving this type its distinctive denomination classification. The flan is irregular in shape, consistent with hand-struck copper issues of the Gupta dynasty. The overall style reflects the epigraphic conventions of Gupta-period copper coinage. |
