| Reverse description | The reverse bears a two-line inscription in Kannada script occupying the central field, reading 'ಶ್ರೀ ದೇವ / ರಾಯ' (Sri Deva Raya), identifying the issuing ruler Deva Raya II. The characters are rendered in the bold, somewhat irregular style typical of hammered copper coinage of the Vijayanagara period. The legend fills the flan without an encircling border, and the surfaces show the characteristic unevenness of hand-struck issues. The field around the inscription is plain, and the overall strike quality reflects standard circulation production of the era. |
