Reverse description The reverse features a right-facing elephant with trunk raised, a design emblematic of Mysore coinage and symbolizing royal power and auspiciousness. The elephant is rendered in a bold, somewhat stylized manner characteristic of late 18th-century Mysorean copper coinage. The field surrounding the elephant is plain, and the coin is enclosed within a beaded border. This type is associated with the Patan (Srirangapatna) mint, active during the reign of Tipu Sultan.
