| Obverse description | Convex face of a bullet (pot duang) coin bearing a deeply struck Chakra (discus) symbol at center, rendered within an oval cartouche. Above the Chakra, a small Unalom (sacred spiral or flame finial) mark is visible in the upper field. The surface is irregular and rounded in the characteristic bullet-money form, with the silver showing natural patination consistent with hammered production. |

| Reverse description | Concave interior face of the bullet coin displaying a prominent Chakra (wheel) device centrally impressed into the silver, accompanied by a Unalom symbol above, both serving as royal authenticating marks of the early Chakri dynasty under Rama I. The surface is deeply recessed and curved, typical of Siamese pot duang coinage, with the struck impressions showing bold relief against the hammered silver ground. |
