| Reverse description | Oval flan with a centrally placed Telugu legend within a plain linear border, struck in low relief on an uneven hammered field. The inscription reads 'శ్రీ వీర' (Sree Vira), arranged within the available field space and characteristic of the anonymous Sree Vira type kasu issues of the Madurai Nayaka kingdom. The surrounding field is plain with no additional ornamental devices. Surface patination is dark brown to black, consistent with long-circulated copper coinage of the period. |
