| Reverse description | Lion striding to right, depicted in a bold and schematic style typical of Shahi jitals of this period. The animal is shown in profile with a prominent mane and raised tail. Below the lion, the Nagari syllable 'Pa' (प) appears in the lower field, serving as a mint or workshop mark. The overall design retains the vigorous, if somewhat abstracted, artistic tradition of the Ohind Shahi series. |
