| Beschrijving voorzijde | 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. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Bhutan's coinage during this stretch was issued with no fixed mint infrastructure — pieces were struck by hand using local tools, which accounts for the dramatic variation in flan preparation and strike quality seen across survivors. The "Deb" designation references the Druk Desi, the secular ruler who held administrative authority alongside the Je Khenpo throughout the theocratic dual-governance system that defined Bhutanese rule until the monarchy's establishment in 1907.
The fifty-year window assigned to this type reflects scholarly inference rather than dated records — Bhutan kept no systematic mint accounts during this period.
