Beschrijving voorzijde Central spoked wheel motif rendered in relief, surrounded by a circle of raised pellets forming an annular border. The wheel, a symbol of Buddhist and dynastic significance, features a domed hub at center from which multiple radiating spokes extend to the rim. The entire design is contained within the square flan, with groups of small pellets or globules arranged in the corners and along the sides of the field, characteristic of the Taxilan punch-marked tradition.

Beschrijving keerzijde Kharosthi legend occupying the majority of the reverse field, arranged in two lines of bold, tree-like characters typical of the northwestern Indian Kharosthi script of the early post-Mauryan period. The inscription, reading 'pacaladamma' or a related epithet, is struck in high relief against a flat, unadorned field. The angular, deeply impressed lettering reflects the hand-punched technique used at the Taxila mint, with individual strokes clearly delineated despite the rough surface of the flan.
