Reverse description An abstract floral or foliate motif occupies the reverse field, executed in the highly stylized idiom typical of Western Ganga gold fanams. Curvilinear lines and scroll-like elements radiate from a central point, creating a decorative pattern that may represent a stylized lotus or vegetal design. The relief is bold but irregular, reflecting the hand-struck nature of the flan. The composition is contained within the roughly circular boundary of the coin, with no discernible inscription or legend.
