Central depiction of a Bhadrapitra, a square or rectangular tiered pedestal traditionally used for placing sacred icons and idols, rendered in low relief with bold, archaic lines. Three oil lamps or flame motifs are depicted rising above the upper register of the pedestal, arranged symmetrically and flanked by subsidiary decorative elements in the field. The design is characteristic of the deeply religious Buddhist iconographic tradition prevalent under the Konbaung Dynasty. The irregular flan results in some design weakness at the periphery, consistent with hand-hammered silver coinage of the period. |

Central depiction of the Srivatsa, an auspicious endless-knot symbol of Vaishnavite and Buddhist significance, occupying the primary field of the coin. Within the body of the Srivatsa, a conch shell (sankha) is depicted, itself a sacred emblem associated with Buddhist and Hindu iconography denoting purity and divine sound. A star or rosette motif appears in the right field. The design is rendered in the bold, simplified style typical of hammered Burmese regal coinage of the Konbaung period, with characteristic surface irregularities resulting from the hand-striking process. |
