Reverse description A nandipada symbol prominently placed upon a stylised hill, flanked by a railed sacred tree (possibly a bodhi or similar), a swastika, an indradhvaja (standard of Indra), and various additional auspicious symbols filling the field. The reverse composition is characteristic of Kuninda coinage, combining Brahminic and early Buddhist iconographic elements in a dense, symbolic arrangement. A Kharosthi legend encircles the design along the outer border of the flan.
