| Beschrijving voorzijde | Crude hammered field depicting a deity figure, likely Siva or a royal symbol, rendered in low relief in the local south Indian iconographic tradition. The central motif appears to show a stylized seated or standing figure with attendant elements above, surrounded by dotted or granular border remnants. The striking is irregular and the design exhibits the characteristic shallow, uneven relief typical of Nayak copper kasu coinage. The flan is irregular and the surfaces show natural copper patination consistent with age and circulation. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse bears a two-line Telugu inscription arranged within a quatrefoil or four-lobed decorative framework, each lobe separated by raised ridges meeting at the center, creating a bold geometric composition characteristic of Madurai Nayak copper coinage. The Telugu legend reads 'శ్రీ' (Sri) in the upper portion and 'వీర' (Vira) in the lower portion, together invoking the royal epithet 'Sri Vira,' referencing the ruling Nayak sovereign. The lettering is boldly struck in raised relief against a flat field, with the quatrefoil border lending a formal, heraldic quality to the design. Surfaces display an even dark brown patina consistent with prolonged circulation. |
