| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field depicts a stylized bull or humped Brahmin bull (zebu) facing right in a schematic, angular rendering typical of late Shahi coinage. Above and flanking the animal are highly stylized decorative elements and what appear to be abbreviated royal emblems. The overall design is executed in a crude but distinctive hammered style characteristic of the Kabul Shahi series. A Brahmi legend reading Sri Spalapati Deva is distributed around the central motif, serving as the royal titulature of the issuing ruler. |

The Kabul Shahis controlled the Hindu Kush corridor at a moment when the Umayyad and later Abbasid caliphates were pressing hard from the west and the expanding Pratihara power was consolidating to the east. The dynasty held. These jitals — struck across a broad century-long window — functioned as the commercial currency of a polity that Arab geographers described in considerable detail, suggesting active trade rather than a purely tribute economy.
Spalapati Deva is among the lesser-documented rulers in the sequence, and attribution within the dynasty remains contested between Tye and Mitchiner on chronological grounds.
