| Reverse description | A dharma chakra (wheel) with radiating spokes occupies the upper field above a horizontal dividing line, a standard Buddhist and royal symbol employed on Alchon Hunnic coinage. Below the dividing line, a Brahmi legend reading 'TO-RA' identifies the issuer Toramana. The design is enclosed within a beaded border, and the overall execution is characteristic of the schematic, heavily stylised die-work associated with the Punjab mint production of this ruler. |
