Obverse description Crude hammered field bearing a compact arrangement of traditional Nepalese symbols and script characters in a square grid-like formation, characteristic of the small dam coinage issued under Girvan Yuddha Vikrama. The design is rendered in low relief with irregular flan shape typical of hand-struck Nepalese silver issues of the period. The symbolic motifs fill the entire field without a formal border or legend.
