| Obverse description | Elephant standing left in profile, rendered in low relief with legs depicted as vertical striations below a rounded body; the head and trunk are visible to the left, with a prominent domed back. The design is characteristic of early South Indian dynastic coinage, executed in a bold but schematic artistic style typical of the Ikshvaku period. |

| Reverse description | Multiple Satavahana-derived symbols arranged across the field, including curved and crescent-like devices rendered in low relief. The symbols, distributed across the flan in an irregular pattern, are consistent with the regional symbolic vocabulary inherited from Satavahana coinage traditions and serve as dynastic or auspicious marks. |
