| Beschrijving keerzijde | A stylized lion depicted in profile, rendered in the primitive artistic style characteristic of early medieval Nepalese hammered coinage. The figure occupies the majority of the reverse field, with the animal's form visible despite the crude strike and irregular flan. Surface wear and die crudeness are consistent with the extended circulation period attributed to this type. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The dam was the smallest denomination in Nepal's medieval coinage hierarchy, functioning as fractional currency in a system where silver purity degraded steadily over centuries of political fragmentation among the Malla kingdoms. At 0.2g, these pieces were struck on tiny, often irregular flans — centering was essentially impossible, and complete specimens showing the full design on both faces are genuinely uncommon.
