| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents a highly stylized and deeply struck padma (lotus) motif in the central field, rendered as an intricate arrangement of swirling petals and scroll-work in high relief, consistent with the 'Padmatanka' denomination type. Concentric borders frame the design: an inner beaded circle encloses the central lotus device, itself surrounded by a second beaded border, beyond which radiates a prominent sun-ray or striated border extending to the irregular hammered edge. No legend or inscription is present on this face. The execution is bold and vigorous, characteristic of the hammered gold coinage of the Kadamba dynasty of Hangal. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Kadambas of Hangal were a junior branch of the Western Chalukyas, operating as feudatories under Vikramaditya VI and his predecessors. Their gold coinage is sparse and poorly documented, making attribution dependent largely on epigraphic parallels rather than a sustained numismatic tradition. Toymadeva ruled during a period when Chalukyan power in the Deccan was near its apex, and the issuance of independent gold — however limited — signals a degree of local authority that the textual record alone understates.
MSI 226-7 remains one of the few anchoring references for this type.
