| Reverse description | A prominent left-turning (counterclockwise) swastika occupies the central field, rendered with squared arms in a bold, linear style characteristic of Paratarajas coinage. The swastika is surrounded by a circular Kharosthi inscription reading the ruler's name and title, arranged in the field around the central symbol. The border shows traces of a dotted or beaded circle. The overall execution is typical of the crude but distinctive hammered copper issues of the late Paratarajas rulers active in the lower Indus region during the late 3rd century CE. |
