| Aversbeschreibung | Central field bearing a bold, crudely rendered symbol resembling a stylized fish or anchor motif, characteristic of the hammered copper coinage of the Nawabdom of Carnatic. The design is executed in low relief with a broad, raised rim encircling the field. The flan is irregular in shape, consistent with hand-struck production methods of the period. No legend or inscription is present on this face. |

| Reversbeschreibung | Reverse field filled with a pattern of multiple raised pellets or bosses arranged in a roughly circular cluster across the entire surface, a distinctive decorative device common to Carnatic copper cash issues. The flan exhibits the irregular edges typical of hammered production, with a raised rim visible around the periphery. No inscription or legend is present. The surface shows a patina of green and brown oxidation consistent with extended circulation and burial. |

The Nawabdom of Carnatic occupied an increasingly hollow political position through the eighteenth century, its rulers nominally sovereign but progressively subordinated to — and eventually dependent upon — the British East India Company. Copper cash of this type circulated in that shrinking administrative space, issued through a minting apparatus the Nawabs retained largely as a symbol of authority they no longer fully exercised.
KM#6 attribution places this among the later issues of the series, struck as the Carnatic was edging toward formal annexation, which the Company completed in 1801 following the death of Nawab Umdat ul-Umara.
