| Obverse description | Garuda depicted kneeling on one knee, facing right, with both hands raised in a devotional praying attitude. The divine eagle deity is rendered in a schematic, compact style typical of late Vijayanagara copper coinage. The figure occupies the central field of the flan, with details worn and irregular due to the hammered manufacture of the piece. |
