| Obverse description | Irregular rectangular flan with a centrally placed figure of a frog or toad in high relief, depicted in a naturalistic crouching or jumping posture with four limbs extended outward. The creature is rendered in a bold, schematic style characteristic of early Indian cast coinage. The field surrounding the figure is plain and deeply recessed, with the edges of the flan left rough and unfinished from the casting process. No legend or additional symbols are present. |
