| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central depiction of a tree-in-railing motif, a characteristic symbol of ancient Indian punch-marked and cast coinage from the Ujjain region. The tree rises from a rectangular railing or fence rendered in a schematic, geometric style, with branches extending laterally. A circular element, possibly representing a fruit or decorative finial, appears at the crown of the tree. The design is struck in low relief on an irregular flan with considerable surface porosity and patination consistent with its age. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Ujjain region was one of the most prolific producers of punch-marked and cast copper coinage in ancient India, functioning as a major commercial hub on trade routes connecting the Gangetic plain to the western ports. Regional issues from this period are notoriously difficult to attribute with precision — overlapping civic, tribal, and mercantile authorities all struck on their own account, with no centralized minting authority imposing uniformity of weight or fabric across the 120-year span this type covers.
