| Aversbeschreibung | Elephant depicted in walking posture facing right, rendered in a schematic, primitive style characteristic of early Indian dynastic coinage. The animal's body is shown in profile with four legs clearly delineated as downward strokes and a rounded torso occupying the central field. The trunk curves slightly downward toward the right, with a small globule visible beneath the body. The flan is irregular and the surface shows typical patination consistent with lead coinage of the early centuries CE. |

| Reversbeschreibung | Multiple unconnected annular circles distributed across the coin field in the Ujjaini symbol tradition, a well-attested device on early Indian dynastic coinage derived from the Buddhist triskelion motif. Approximately seven raised ring-pellet or plain ring devices are arranged irregularly across the entire reverse surface, with several circles partially cut off by the coin's edge. The design is executed in a bold, deeply impressed style with no accompanying legend or additional symbols. The plain field between the circles shows light patination over the lead substrate. |

The Ikshvakus ruled the Krishna River valley from their capital at Nagarjunakonda following the collapse of Satavahana power in the Deccan, and their lead coinage reflects a regional economy that never fully monetized in precious metals. Lead issues of this type circulated alongside a vigorous Buddhist patronage economy — the dynasty funded some of the most significant stupa construction of the early centuries CE, much of it at sites now submerged beneath the Nagarjuna Sagar reservoir since 1960.
