| Obverse description | Zebu (humped bull) depicted in profile facing right, occupying the upper central field of the irregular square flan. Below or adjacent to the bull appears a tree-in-railing symbol, a standard Punch-marked coinage motif representing sacred enclosures. A river or water symbol is present in the field, alongside a Brahmi inscription identifying the issuing city of Bhagila. The devices are rendered in a provincial, somewhat schematic style consistent with late-period janapada coinage of the Indian subcontinent. |
