| Reverse description | Frontal standing figure of the goddess Ardoksho rendered in a highly schematised manner, her body depicted as a broad trapezoidal form with outstretched arms, occupying the centre of the field. To the upper right, a subsidiary figure — likely a seated attendant or secondary deity — is enclosed within a rectangular border. Brahmi inscriptions are distributed across the field, reading 'sri durla' above and 'deva' below, constituting the royal epithet of the issuing ruler Durlabha Deva. Additional geometric devices, pellets, and linear symbols fill the remaining field, consistent with the degraded iconographic conventions of late Kidarite gold coinage. |
