Beschrijving voorzijde Garuda, the divine eagle-vehicle of Vishnu, depicted kneeling and facing right in low relief within a plain field. The figure displays outstretched wings rendered in a schematic, stylized manner characteristic of late medieval South Indian copper coinage. The body, talons, and wing feathers are boldly but crudely indicated, consistent with hammered die production. No legend or border ornament is present.

Beschrijving keerzijde A centrally placed royal sceptre with a voluted or scroll finial rising above the shaft, flanked on either side by a fish in profile facing outward, all rendered in bold low relief within a plain field. The two fish and the sceptre together constitute the dynastic emblems of the Pandya-derived rulers of Madurai, symbolizing sovereignty and royal authority. No inscription or border is present. The design is characteristic of the schematic, hammered style of 15th-century South Indian copper kasu coinage.
