| Obverse description | Two fish depicted in vertical alignment, facing one another, rendered in the characteristic South Indian style emblematic of the Pandya dynasty, whose royal emblem was the double fish. A Tamil legend encircles the central device in the field, reading எல்லாந்தலைய (ellāntalaiya), distributed around the periphery of the flan. The coin is crudely struck on an irregular flan with visible surface porosity consistent with cast copper coinage of the medieval Pandya period. |
