| Obverse description | Central field bearing a arrow symbol and a thunderbolt, both rendered in the characteristic punch-marked tradition of early Indian coinage. Surrounding the central devices, a Brahmi legend in the field reads rajno ksatrapasa Nahapanasa, identifying the issuer as the Kshatrapa (Satrap) ruler Nahapana. The flan is irregular and shows the characteristic surface texture of a hammered copper issue. |
