| Obverse description | Elephant depicted in profile walking to the right, rendered in low relief in the characteristic style of Tipu Sultan's copper coinage. The Persian letter 'Se' (س) appears in the field above the elephant's back, serving as a mint or series identifier. The flan is irregular and roughly circular, consistent with hammered copper production of the late 18th-century Mysore sultanate. |
