| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field depicts a stylized figure of the Hindu deity Govinda (Vishnu), rendered in a crude but characteristic hammered style typical of Madurai Nayak coinage. The deity appears in a frontal stance within a roughly circular border, with distinguishing iconographic attributes visible in relief. The flan is irregular and slightly oval, with the design occupying most of the available field. The execution is bold and schematic, consistent with the artistic conventions of South Indian copper kasu coinage of the period. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse field bears a Tamil inscription in a cursive script, centrally placed within the irregular flan. The legend reads 'கோ' (Ko), an abbreviated Tamil honorific title meaning 'king' or 'ruler', commonly employed on Madurai Nayak copper kasu issues. The lettering is rendered in a bold, somewhat crude hammered style, characteristic of the period. The surrounding field is plain, showing typical surface patination and minor flan irregularities consistent with hand-struck coinage. |
