Obverse: hasa/ sam (year) Reverse: Sri
Context
The reverse of Hammira's copper coins is quite obviously adopted from the copper sri omkara gadhaiya coins of Malwa. Both sri omkara and Hammira's coins have a set of three lines on either side of the Devanagari legend. Regarding the the legend itself, Hammira appears to have retained the sri from the the sri omkara type. The obverse has the Devanagari legend hasa/ sam (year) within a square outlined by dots. The inclusion of the year is significant, as it enables one to date these particular issues of Hammira. The known dates of Hammira's copper coins are VS 1340-1343 & VS 1346-1348.
