| 表面の説明 | Central punch depicting an anonymous pulley symbol combined with a triskele motif, executed in the characteristic punch-marked style of the Janapada period. The pulley device is rendered as a circular ring with a central pellet, from which three curved arms radiate outward in a triskele arrangement, each terminating in a small globular element. The punch is applied within a concave flan, producing a shallow but well-defined impression against the plain silver field. The overall design is contained within a single punch mark, consistent with the half-Satamana denomination of the Kuntala Janapada series. |

| 裏面の説明 | Reverse is entirely blank, presenting a plain, convex silver surface characteristic of the punch-marked coinage of the pre-Mauryan Janapada period. The concave obverse flan produces a corresponding convex boss on the reverse, with no applied punch marks, inscriptions, or decorative devices. The surface shows the natural hammered texture of the silver flan. |

The Kuntala janapada occupied territory in the Deccan region, and its punch-marked coinage represents one of the southernmost issuing authorities among the pre-Mauryan republics. These pieces circulated in a monetary system where weight standards mattered far more than any issuing identity — a coin's value was in its metal, verified by successive punches from merchants and officials who added their own marks as guarantees of purity.
Mauryan expansion into the Deccan effectively absorbed Kuntala's political autonomy, after which independent issues ceased and the region's coinage merged into the imperial punch-marked fabric.
