| Beschrijving voorzijde | Stylized representation of a fish emblem rendered in low relief against a roughly textured field, characteristic of the hammered coinage of the Madurai Nayak dynasty. The design, executed in a highly schematic manner, features the sacred fish motif — a dynastic symbol of the Pandya kingdom inherited by the Nayaks — depicted in a curvilinear form occupying the majority of the flan. The strike is typical of hand-hammered production, resulting in an irregular, slightly convex flan with uneven surfaces and natural die wear. No legible inscription is present on this face. The overall patina is a deep olive-green bronze with areas of natural cuprite highlighting. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents a highly stylized Tamil legend or symbolic device in low relief, heavily worn and partially obscured by the rough, porous surface typical of hammered bronze kasu coinage of the Madurai Nayak period. Curvilinear motifs and looped forms are visible across the field, possibly representing a degraded Tamil script inscription or abstract dynastic symbol. The flan is irregular in outline with a granular, heavily oxidized surface displaying green patination overlying the bronze substrate. The strike is off-center in areas, consistent with hand-hammered production methods of the period. No clear border or rim decoration is discernible. |
