Beschrijving voorzijde Central field dominated by a bull or bovine figure in motion, rendered in the characteristically schematic style of early Indian civic coinage. To the left, a staff or standard with pendant decorative elements occupies the field. The composition is framed by scattered pellets and auxiliary symbols distributed across the flat, irregular flan. The relief is bold but worn, consistent with circulation use on a hammered copper blank. No legible legend is present on this face.

Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse displays a prominent Ujjain or Dharmachakra-type wheel symbol to the left, rendered with spokes radiating from a central hub, a recurring emblem of civic and Buddhist significance on Kausambi coinage. To the right, a large tree-in-railing motif occupies the central field, depicted in schematic form with tiered branches above a rectangular latticed enclosure, a well-attested symbol on early Indian punch-marked and cast coinage. The upper left field contains a triangular or mound-like symbol, while the lower register features an arched or taurine device. The field is populated with pellets serving as subsidiary marks.
