| Obverse description | A bull walking to the left occupies the central field, rendered in a bold, archaic style characteristic of Vijayanagara copper coinage. A solar symbol (sun) and a crescent moon appear above the bull in the upper field, serving as celestial dynastic emblems. The flan is irregular and slightly ragged at the edges, consistent with hand-struck hammered production. The overall design is deeply struck with moderate relief. |
