| Beschrijving voorzijde | A humped bull (Nandi) depicted in profile within the field, rendered in the schematic Licchavi style typical of early medieval Nepal. The sacred bull faces right, its characteristic hump clearly articulated in low relief. The Brahmi legend VRSHA (meaning 'bull') appears in the field accompanying the device. The flan is irregular and the strike somewhat flat, consistent with hammered copper coinage of this period. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | A trident (trishula), the emblematic weapon and symbol of the Hindu deity Shiva, is depicted centrally in the field in low relief. The trishula is rendered in the schematic style characteristic of Licchavi copper coinage. The Brahmi legend SHIVA appears in the field, referencing the divine patronage of the issuing ruler. The surface shows typical green patination and surface porosity consistent with ancient hammered copper issues of the Kathmandu Valley. |
