| Reverse description | An elephant passant to the left occupies the central field, rendered in a naive, robust style characteristic of locally cast Indian colonial coinage. The animal's trunk is raised, a traditional motif associated with good fortune in South Asian iconography. The figure is set within a plain, irregular circular border with no surrounding legend. The overall execution is crude, reflecting the utilitarian nature of this low-denomination lead cash issue. |
