Beschrijving keerzijde Three-line Nagari legend reading 'Shri Pratapachyutaraya', arranged horizontally across the field and separated by incised interlinear rules. The inscription identifies the issuing ruler Achyutaraya and his royal epithet Pratapa, rendered in the Devanagari script conventional for Vijayanagara epigraphic traditions. The lettering is bold and deliberate, occupying the full width of the flan, with the interlinear strokes providing clear demarcation between each line of text. The reverse field is otherwise plain, with no additional ornamental devices.

Aanvullende informatie

Achyutaraya's reign is often overshadowed by that of his predecessor Krishnadevaraya, regarded as the greatest of the Tuluva rulers, but Achyutaraya held the empire together through sustained pressure from the Deccan Sultanates and internal court intrigue that nearly cost him the throne on multiple occasions. The gandaberunda — the double-headed eagle — became closely associated with Vijayanagara royal iconography during this period, its use on coinage asserting dynastic continuity at a moment when continuity was genuinely in question.

MSI 671 and 672 represent distinct die varieties within this type.
