| Obverse description | Elaborately designed hammered silver field featuring a central circular medallion enclosing a stylized floral or stellar motif, surrounded by a square panel divided into compartments filled with Devanagari inscriptions. The corners of the square are adorned with decorative foliate scroll elements, and the entire composition is enclosed within a beaded border running along the coin's periphery. The design reflects the distinctive Nepalese tantric artistic tradition, with intricate interlocking geometric and floral ornamentation characteristic of the Shah dynasty coinage. The royal legend naming King Pratap Simha is distributed across the compartments in Devanagari script. |
