| Obverse description | Deity Vishnu depicted in high relief, seated cross-legged in a frontal posture atop the divine eagle Garuda, whose outstretched wings and form serve as a support for the figure. The god is shown with multiple arms in the characteristic iconographic style of Vaishnava devotional art. Bengali script inscriptions appear in the surrounding field, arranged around the central figural motif. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded border running along the coin's rim. |
