| Beschrijving keerzijde | A six-arched hill (symbolising the sacred mountain) surmounted by a Nandipada symbol occupies the central field, with a swastika device placed above. A standard appears to the left of the hill, while a railed tree (Bodhi tree within a railing) is positioned to the right; a river or wavy line is depicted along the lower field. A Kharosthi legend encircles the devices, consistent with the bilingual epigraphic convention characteristic of Kuninda coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Kuninda kingdom occupied the Himalayan foothills of what is now Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand, and Amoghabhuti is the only ruler of the dynasty attested by name on coinage — making him the sole fixed chronological anchor for the entire sequence. Whether he was a single king or a dynastic title remains contested among scholars. The silver drachms attributed to him show strong Mauryan and later Indo-Greek influence in their execution, suggesting the kingdom was actively engaged with the numismatic conventions of more powerful neighbors rather than isolated from them.
