Reverse description A standing female divinity, identified as the goddess Pakhalavati, depicted in frontal stance with robes rendered in flowing Hellenistic-influenced drapery. The goddess holds a lotus flower in one hand, raised toward the upper field. Kharosthi inscriptions flank the figure to the left and right, identifying the deity by name and epithet. The overall style reflects the syncretic Hellenistic and Indian artistic traditions characteristic of Indo-Scythian coinage.
