| Aversbeschreibung | Deity Lord Narasimha depicted in seated posture within a plain border, rendered in low relief in the primitive hammered style typical of South Indian Nayaka copper coinage. The figure is shown frontally, with characteristic leonine features and multiple arms, occupying the central field of the irregularly shaped flan. The design is boldly struck but of archaic artistic execution, with the deity's form conveyed through simplified, schematic lines. No legend appears on this side. The overall presentation reflects the devotional iconographic tradition of the Nayaka rulers of Dharmapuri. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
The Nayaks of Dharmapuri were a minor tributary power operating under the broader collapse of Mughal authority in the Deccan, issuing their own copper coinage during precisely the period when the Carnatic and Mysore were contesting the same territorial ground. Hyder Ali's campaigns through the region in the 1770s disrupted multiple small Nayak administrations, and coinage from these polities often shows interrupted or irregular production as a result. Whether the Dharmapuri mint operated continuously across this sixty-year window or in fits is not well documented.
Lord Narasimha as a dynastic patron deity reflects deep Vaishnava allegiance among Deccan Nayak lineages, a tradition traceable to their Vijayanagara origins.
