Obverse description Octagonal flan with a beaded border along each of the eight edges. The central field is entirely occupied by a multi-line inscription in Assamese script arranged in five horizontal lines, recording the Śaka era date (SE 1665) and citing Queen Sarvveśvarī and the devotional formula Śrī Śrī Hara Gaurī Pada Parāyanānam. No figurative design is present; the lettering fills the field boldly in the characteristic hammered style of Ahom coinage.
