Obverse description Central field dominated by a large lotus flower (padma) in relief, rendered with eight rounded petals radiating from a prominent central boss, set within a circular border. Above the lotus, a horizontal bar or sword motif separates the central design from the upper legend. The legend, reading 'Shri Mahadeva' in Kannada and Devanagari scripts, is inscribed along the upper arc. To the left and right of the central lotus, stylised floral or scroll ornaments flank the design, while the lower field bears an indistinct raised device, possibly a recumbent bull (Nandi), consistent with the Shaivite iconography of the Yadava coinage.
