kai,

This is a Nepalese army inscription. You show it upside down. Right side up it reads: Surjadal Company (Unit) 8, (Weapon) 48, Shree Tin Chandra. The vertical line between the unit number and the weapon number is just to separate the two numbers. The inscription was put there before Chandra's death in 1929. He had a lot of enemies so nobody was going to use that inscription after he died.

Sincerely,
RobT
