| Reverse description | The reverse displays an arrangement of Brahmi characters and symbols distributed across an irregularly struck field, including what appear to be abbreviated legends and dynastic symbols. The inscription references Pashupati, the presiding deity of the Pashupatinath temple and a central religious emblem of Licchavi royal authority. Individual characters are raised and somewhat crudely executed due to the hammered technique, with additional pellet or dot devices filling the field. The overall layout is non-uniform, typical of Licchavi copper coinage of the seventh century. |
