Obverse description Convex, globular obverse surface of hammered gold with an irregular, rounded flan typical of early Southeast Asian coinage. The field is largely plain and unmarked, exhibiting the characteristic dome-like profile of the masa or tahil series. The surface shows the natural flow lines and tool marks consistent with primitive hammering technique, with no discernible legend or device, the design being confined to the opposite face.
