| Obverse description | A bull standing to right occupies the left field, with an Indradhvaja (standard) symbol positioned above the bull. At centre, a tree within a railing is depicted in relief, rendered in the schematic punch-marked style characteristic of Post-Mauryan Ujjain coinage. To the right stands the figure of Mahakal, depicted frontally. The composition is arranged across the irregular square flan with punch-applied devices typical of the period. |
