| Obverse description | Within a circle of pellets, the Vishnupaadam (sacred feet of the deity Vishnu) is depicted as two curved lines representing the soles, with ten pellets arranged to symbolize the toes. Four pellets are positioned above a crescent moon in the upper field. The design is entirely symbolic and non-figural, consistent with the devotional iconographic tradition of Travancore coinage. |
