| Obverse description | Crude hammered copper flan bearing a stylized bird figure, possibly a swan or goose, depicted in profile facing right within the field. Above the bird, a small floral or leaf-like device is visible. The design is rendered in a primitive, low-relief style characteristic of South Indian cash coinage of the period. The overall field is plain with no surrounding legend or inscription. |

| Reverse description | Crude hammered flan displaying a schematic fish or bow-like device in the upper field, rendered in low relief. Below, three pellets or globular devices are arranged in a triangular formation. The design is typical of the highly simplified, symbolic reverse types found on Carnatic copper cash coinage of the late 17th to early 19th century. No surrounding legend is present. |
