Beschrijving voorzijde A pair of Vishnu's sacred footprints (Vishnu-pada) depicted in relief at the center of the flan, rendered in a stylized manner characteristic of South Indian Hindu coinage. The footprints are shown facing forward, symbolizing the divine presence and authority of Lord Vishnu as the cosmic sovereign. The design is executed in a bold, schematic style typical of Nayak-period hammered copper coinage, with the imagery occupying the majority of the irregular flan. The surrounding field is plain and unadorned, with no border or legend present.

Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse displays a complex device of uncertain iconographic identification, rendered in low relief on the irregular hammered flan. The design appears to feature geometric or symbolic elements arranged in a roughly symmetrical composition, possibly representing a royal emblem, dynastic symbol, or a stylized representation of a shrine or architectural motif associated with the Thanjavur Nayak rulers. The overall execution is crude and typical of the hammered copper kasu coinage of the period. Significant wear and surface corrosion obscure precise identification of individual design elements.
