| Descripción del anverso |
Central device depicting a stylized figure, likely a balemark or merchant's mark of the East India Company, rendered in a crude hammered style characteristic of early Madras Presidency coinage. The design is enclosed within a beaded border of pellets arranged around the circumference. The last two digits of the regnal or Christian year '78' appear in the field, serving as a date reference. The overall execution is typical of the rough, irregular hammered coinage produced at Fort St. George in the late seventeenth century. |

| Descripción del reverso |
The reverse displays a crude hammered design featuring a stylized symbol, possibly a simplified rendering of a balance or abstract floral motif, characteristic of the early copper cash issues of the Madras Presidency. Scattered pellets or globules are arranged in the upper field, with further abstract elements in the lower portion of the flan. The surface is irregular and shows the characteristic uneven strike of hand-hammered coinage produced at the Fort St. George mint. No legible inscription or legend is present on this face. |
