| Reverse description | Central field occupied by a boldly rendered Nagari 'OM' (ओं) symbol, the sacred syllable executed in a schematic but legible cursive Devanagari hand. The design is surrounded by a border of pellets arranged along the lower periphery of the irregular flan. The overall style reflects the progressive abstraction characteristic of late Gadhaiya coinage from the Malwa region, with the religious symbol replacing the fire altar motif of earlier Indo-Sasanian prototypes. |
