| Descripción del anverso | Central field bears a Devanagari legend arranged in two lines, the inscription reading the royal name or title associated with the Dharmakara issue. The lettering is bold and deeply struck within a beaded border, characteristic of the hammered coinage of Harikela. The script is executed in an early regional Devanagari style consistent with the 7th–10th century Bengal-Burma cultural sphere. The field surrounding the legend shows a slightly granular, irregular surface typical of cast and hand-struck silver blanks of this period. |

| Descripción del reverso | Central design features a stylized temple-trisul (trident) motif rising prominently from the field, flanked by decorative side ornaments. A crescent moon and a solar symbol are placed above the trisul, referencing cosmological and Hindu iconographic conventions common to early medieval South and Southeast Asian coinage. The entire composition is enclosed within a beaded or dotted border. The design elements are bold but somewhat crude in execution, consistent with the hammered technique and the regional workshop tradition of the Harikela kingdom. The reverse layout reflects strong Shaivite religious symbolism prevalent in the coinage of this dynastic series. |

Harikela occupied the coastal Bengal region — roughly modern southeastern Bangladesh and not Myanmar, despite catalog conventions that sometimes muddy the attribution. The kingdom thrived on maritime trade connecting the Bay of Bengal networks to Southeast Asian ports, and its silver coinage circulated well beyond its political borders, turning up in hoards from Sri Lanka to the Malay Peninsula. The Dharmakara type specifically is associated with Buddhist institutional patronage, likely issued under rulers whose authority was bound up with monastic endowments rather than purely secular administration.
Mitchiner's LOW series remains the primary reference, though attribution within the Harikela sequence continues to be revised as new hoard evidence emerges from Bangladesh.
