| 裏面の説明 | A trident (trishula), the emblematic weapon and symbol of the Hindu deity Shiva, is depicted centrally in the field in low relief. The trishula is rendered in the schematic style characteristic of Licchavi copper coinage. The Brahmi legend SHIVA appears in the field, referencing the divine patronage of the issuing ruler. The surface shows typical green patination and surface porosity consistent with ancient hammered copper issues of the Kathmandu Valley. |

Shivadeva II ruled the Licchavi kingdom of Nepal during a period when the dynasty was increasingly entangled in Tibetan political pressure from the north and Gupta successor-state influence from the south. His reign in the late seventh century produced a relatively narrow window of autonomous coinage, and copper units of this type are among the few tangible administrative artifacts from that compressed period.
