| Reverse description | A lion passant to the left, depicted in a bold and stylized manner typical of early Licchavi dynastic coinage of Nepal, with the body rendered in low relief against a plain field. The design reflects indigenous artistic conventions, with the animal's form appearing somewhat schematic due to the hammered technique and irregular flan. The legend 'Sri Mananka' appears in early Brahmi script in the field surrounding the lion. The overall strike is characteristic of the crude fabric associated with this series. |
