Reverse description A fleur-de-lis is prominently displayed at the center, enclosed within a plain circle, which is itself set at the intersection of a bold outlined Greek cross dividing the field into four quadrants. The cross extends to the edge of the coin, and the overall design reflects the French colonial coinage style employed at Pondicherry. The flan is irregular and the strike shows typical characteristics of hand-struck hammered coinage.
