| Obverse description | Central deity figure, identified as Lord Venkateswara (Vishnu), depicted in frontal stance in high relief, shown with characteristic iconographic attributes including a tall crown or kirita-mukuta and multiple arms holding divine emblems. The figure is flanked by smaller attendant figures or emblems in the field. The overall rendering is characteristic of the Vijayanagara hammered gold pagoda tradition, with a slightly irregular flan and bold, stylized execution. |
