| Beschrijving keerzijde | 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. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Paramaras of Malwa were in terminal decline by the early 13th century, squeezed between the expanding Delhi Sultanate to the north and repeated Yadava pressure from the Deccan. The "Battle Series" designation reflects coins issued during this desperate final phase — the dynasty effectively ended when Devapala was defeated and Malwa absorbed into the Sultanate around 1239. These billon issues represent the degraded end of a long Gadhaiya tradition that had descended from Sassanian prototypes over several centuries of progressive stylistic abstraction.
