| Reverse description | Battlefield scene depicting a trotting horse with a mounted soldier astride, rendered in the schematic hammered style characteristic of the Paramara Gadhaiya Battle Series. The soldier is shown brandishing a sword while a bow is depicted behind the figure. In the upper right field, before the soldier, appears a circular device — catalogued by Maheshwari as a shield, though recent scholarship, informed by a newly discovered inscribed coin of Devapala, suggests this element may represent the sun (denoting daytime), with a star symbol on related pieces denoting nighttime. The reverse type is classified as Type 6B within Maheshwari's typological framework. |
