Reverse description Elephant walking to the right, shown standing upon a raised platform or ground line, rendered in the robust, schematic style characteristic of early Audumbara tribal coinage. A trident standard (trishula), the sacred emblem of Shiva, rises prominently to the right of the elephant. Brahmi legend disposed around the central device in the field, encircling the main design elements and identifying the ruler in the reverse inscription.
