| Reverse description | A conch shell (shankha), a sacred attribute of Vishnu, depicted centrally in low relief on a roughly struck flan. A short votive legend in Tamil script appears to the right of the conch, reading 'Sri Vira'. The overall workmanship is characteristic of locally produced hammered copper coinage of South India in the early eighteenth century. |
