Beschrijving voorzijde Irregular square flan bearing one or more punch-marked symbols in shallow relief, characteristic of Mauryan imperial coinage. The central field displays a curved or crescent-like motif accompanied by abstract geometric or symbolic punches, applied individually by a punch-marking technique. The devices are deeply impressed into the copper surface, which exhibits a granular texture and patinated finish consistent with ancient cast production. No legend or inscription is present; identification relies entirely on the iconographic content of the punched symbols. The overall design is typical of the fractional punch-marked coinage issued under Mauryan imperial authority.

Beschrijving keerzijde Plain, essentially uninscribed reverse with a rough, uneven surface resulting from the casting and punch-marking process. The flan shows irregular edges and a coarse granular texture, with no deliberate design elements or secondary punch marks visible. The copper surface displays green and brown patination consistent with extended burial or circulation. The absence of reverse devices is standard for this denomination of Mauryan punch-marked fractional coinage. The irregular outline of the flan is characteristic of the hand-cut or broken-off casting method employed during this period.
