| Obverse description | Stylized elephant facing left with raised left foreleg and uplifted trunk, rendered in a bold, archaic die-engraving style characteristic of early Satavahana coinage. The elephant occupies the central field with its head oriented upward, emphasizing regal and auspicious symbolism. Brahmi legends are arranged around the periphery of the flan, partially visible due to the irregular coin shape and die placement. The design is executed in low relief with crude but deliberate strokes typical of hammered provincial issues of this period. |
