| Obverse description | Central field bearing a battle axe (parashu) conjoined with an elephant goad (ankusha), applied by punch-marking technique. A flying Garuda figure appears in the field alongside additional subsidiary punches. A legend in Kannada script encircles the central device. The overall composition is characteristic of the Kalachuri punch-marked pagoda tradition, with multiple individual punches applied to the flat gold flan. |
