Obverse description Central field dominated by a stylized anthropomorphic or zoomorphic device rendered in the bold, schematic tradition of South Indian medieval coinage, featuring a large central figure flanked by attendant elements. The design is composed of raised linear forms suggesting a deity or symbolic emblem, surrounded by scattered pellets and curvilinear decorative motifs throughout the field. A rectangular panel or legend area is partially visible at the upper periphery. The overall composition is executed in the robust hammered style characteristic of Alupa feudatory issues, with a plain inner field bordered by an irregular raised rim.
