| Reverse description | Plain or lightly marked reverse with an irregular, roughly squared flan showing the natural surface of the cast copper blank. The reverse exhibits minimal intentional decoration, with only incidental tool marks and surface irregularities visible across the field. The edge of the flan is uneven and unfinished, consistent with the hand-cut or cast production methods employed during the Mauryan period. Some faint counter-punch impressions may be present, typical of re-authenticated or re-circulated issues of this era. |
