| Obverse description | Stylized frontal face of the deity Mahadeva (Shiva) occupies the central field, rendered in a bold, primitive hammered style characteristic of Pratabgarh copper coinage. A single eye is prominently depicted at the center of the face, flanked by the characteristic trishula (trident) elements suggesting the divine iconography of Shiva. The overall design is deeply struck in high relief against an irregular flan, with the facial features arranged symmetrically within the available field. The artistic execution reflects the local die-cutting tradition of the princely state. |
