| Obverse description | An elephant passant to left occupies the central field, rendered in the traditional South Indian style with bold, rounded forms. Above the elephant, a solar disc (sun) and a crescent (moon) are depicted as celestial symbols, emblems of the Mysore royal house. The entire design is enclosed within a circular border composed of a series of raised pellets or bosses, framing the composition in a manner characteristic of Mysore copper coinage of the period. |
