| Obverse description | Crude hammered gold field bearing an inscription in Devanagari script identifying the ruler, Rajesvara Simha Suprempha, executed in the rough, deeply struck style characteristic of Ahom Kingdom coinage. The legend is distributed across the compact flan, with individual akshara characters rendered in bold relief against an uneven, granular field. The inscriptions denote the royal name and regnal authority. The overall execution reflects the primitive die-cutting tradition of the Assam mints, with the legend occupying the majority of the available field space. |
