| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse of this crescent-shaped hammered silver piece displays two lines of Devanagari inscription conforming to the curved form of the flan. The upper legend reads 'Shri Shri Shri Pashupati Nath', a triple invocation of Pashupatinath, the supreme Shaivite deity and divine protector of the Kingdom of Nepal, whose temple in Kathmandu held paramount religious significance for the Shah rulers. Below appears the Vikrama Samvat date '1881' in Devanagari numerals, establishing the year of issue. The engraving is executed in the bold, hand-struck style characteristic of the Kathmandu mint, with dot ornaments punctuating the field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The fractional silver coinages of early nineteenth-century Nepal reflect the kingdom's complex parallel denomination structure, in which the mohar — not a decimal unit — anchored a system of halves, thirds, and sixths. A denomination expressed as both "Sho" and a mohar fraction signals the administrative awkwardness of reconciling traditional Newar trade weights with the demands of a unified hill kingdom still consolidating after Prithvi Narayan Shah's conquests a generation earlier. VS 1881 falls during the reign of Rajendra Bikram Shah, a period of significant Rana family influence over the throne.
