The epigraphy of the reverse is very varied on these gossips; from a completely legible OYINDIA legend to a geometric design with no reading possible. It is noted that for gossip whose calligraphy is very stylized/degenerate, the variant head to the left is frequent.
Example of variant head on the left:
