| Aversbeschreibung | 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. |

| Reversbeschreibung | The reverse displays a bold geometric pattern consisting of two pairs of intersecting horizontal and vertical lines forming a cross or grid motif, dividing the field into four quadrants. Within each of the four quadrants is a raised concentric circle or annular device, the upper-left quadrant featuring a double-ring motif. This abstract geometric composition, typical of Mysore kasu coinage, fills the flan to its edges with no inscriptions or legends present. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Krishna Raja Wodeyar II ruled Mysore in name only for most of his reign — by the 1750s, effective power had passed to Hyder Ali, the military commander who would eventually displace the Wodeyar dynasty entirely. Coinage continued to be issued under the royal name throughout this period, masking a political reality that had fundamentally shifted.
The kasu was the traditional small copper unit of Mysore's monetary system, with roots predating the Wodeyar dynasty itself. KM#152 sees limited documentation in the specialist literature, and attribution of individual pieces to specific years within the 1731–1761 window is not reliably possible by type alone.
