| Obverse description | Octagonal hammered silver flan bordered by a row of raised beads along all eight edges. The field is occupied entirely by a multi-line legend in Assamese script, arranged in three registers across the coin. The character 'Na' appears beneath the main legend as a privy mark or identifying symbol. The inscriptions are boldly struck with characteristic Ahom calligraphic style, filling the available field without a central motif. |
