| Obverse description | Crude hammered design displaying a central swastika symbol, a traditional auspicious motif, rendered in bold relief within a segmented rectangular framework. The field is divided by linear borders into quadrants, with stylized Tibetan script characters occupying the upper and surrounding registers. The overall design is characteristic of Bhutanese hammered copper coinage, exhibiting irregular flan edges and a rough, archaic artistic style typical of the Deb period issues. |
