| Obverse description | Central field depicts a stylized palm tree or floral device rendered in a crude, local South Indian artistic style, surrounded by a border of raised pellets arranged in a circular pattern. The design reflects the indigenous minting tradition of the Danish settlement at Tranquebar, with the motif occupying the entirety of the flan. |
