| Reverse description | Irregular hammered field bearing an indistinct device, possibly a highly stylized anthropomorphic or zoomorphic figure in low relief, consistent with the crude iconographic tradition of late Thanjavur Nayak copper kasu coinage. The surface exhibits extensive patination with green and brown toning. The flan edges are uneven and ragged, as typical of hand-cut copper flans of this period. |
