Bhandarkar says the two halves of this broken seal are extant, but his plate only shows one half (or shows another specimen, as he also reports "several" specimens in total, of which two are complete). I show unclear and restored readings as Bhandarkar shows in his edition. No other editors treat specimen 2 separately.

--><!--

Note also that Bhandarkar prints mahāra (for mahārā) at the end of line 5 and does not show where the unclear portion ends in line 7 - corrected the former and guessed the latter.

The reading purugupta instead of puragupta may have been first proposed by #Agrawal_1940:60-61, who says that though the ru is uncertain in the Bhitari seal, it is "so clear ... that there can be no doubt reading it" in the Nalanda seals. He also says that according to Hoernle, Cunningham had also read Puru on a coin (ref JASB 1894 p212, untraced).
