| Obverse description | A lion passant facing right, depicted in a crude but stylized manner characteristic of South Indian hammered coinage of the period. The animal is rendered in low relief within a plain circular field, with the body, legs, and head discernible despite the irregular flan. The design is typical of Vijayanagara-affiliated Nayaka issues. |
