| Obverse description | Central field depicts a stylized figure of the goddess Chamundeshwari or a royal deity in seated or standing posture, rendered in a crude but characteristic hammered style typical of Mysore princely coinage. The figure is surrounded by a dotted or beaded border encircling the entire design. The relief is low and the details, including the deity's limbs and adornments, are broadly rendered in the local artistic tradition. No legible legend appears on this face. The overall design is consistent with small-denomination silver fractional coinage issued under Krishnaraja Wadiyar III. |
