| Aversbeschreibung | Stylized frontal effigy of the goddess Lakshmi seated in padmasana (lotus position) with legs crossed, rendered in a schematic, highly abstracted manner characteristic of early medieval Indian coinage. The deity is depicted facing, with rounded pellets representing ornamental or bodily features at the center of the field. Flanking devices appear at left and right of the central figure, possibly representing attendant symbols or floral motifs. The overall design is executed in bold, low relief with rough irregular flan edges typical of hammered debased gold issues of the Kalachuri period. |

| Reversbeschreibung | Reverse field occupied entirely by a bold, squarish Nagari legend arranged in two or three lines, reading 'Srimad Gangeya Deva', the regnal epithet of the Kalachuri ruler Gangeya Deva. The inscription is deeply struck in a compressed, angular script characteristic of 11th-century Central Indian numismatic epigraphy. Individual aksharas are rendered with thick strokes and minimal interlinear spacing, filling the available flan. The reverse exhibits no additional decorative elements, with the legend serving as the sole design feature. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Gangeya Deva ruled the Kalachuri kingdom of Tripuri at its political peak, briefly claiming imperial titles and expanding aggressively into neighboring territories during the early 11th century. The debased gold in this series reflects the fiscal strain of sustained military campaigning — a pattern visible across his coinage in the progressive reduction of fineness over his reign.
At 0.42g, the masha denomination served interregional trade in central India, where it circulated alongside Paramara and Chandela issues in contested border zones.
