| Obverse description | Flat, irregularly rounded hammered flan bearing four deeply impressed punched devices arranged in a cruciform pattern across the field: a sunburst or radiate rosette at the top center flanked by two conch shell symbols (right-facing and left-facing), with a third conch shell motif positioned at the lower center. These devices are characteristic of traditional Siamese royal symbolism associated with the reign of Rama IV. The surface retains original silver luster beneath aged patination, consistent with a trial or proof-of-concept striking. |
