Aversbeschreibung	Crudely struck obverse depicting a stylized fish or serpentine creature in low relief, rendered in a primitive folk art style typical of South Indian copper kasu coinage. The design features a sinuous form occupying the central field, accompanied by pellet ornaments distributed around the periphery. The flan is irregularly shaped with a slightly uneven surface consistent with hand-hammered production. No legible legend or inscription is present on this face.

Reversbeschreibung	Reverse bearing a Tamil inscription arranged in two lines within the field, executed in a bold, archaic Tamil script. The legend reads 'தளவாய்' (Dhalawai), a title denoting the chieftain Dhalawai Sethupathi, ruler of Ramanathapuram between 1635 and 1646 AD. The lettering is deeply and crudely struck, with characteristically thick strokes typical of hammered copper issues of the Sethupathi chiefs. A raised horizontal line separates the two lines of text, and the coin's irregular flan reflects the primitive minting technology of the period.
