Reverse description Reverse field bears a Brahmi inscription rendered in a highly schematic and somewhat degenerate style, typical of late Alchon Hun provincial issues. The legend is arranged across the field without a clear central device, with letterforms showing the characteristic angular execution of hammered coinage from this period. The script occupies most of the flan, with the rough, irregular fabric of the coin visible at the margins. The overall presentation reflects the reduced administrative and artistic capacity of the issuing authority in the late phase of Alchon Hun control.
