| Obverse description | Central field bearing the Srivatsa symbol, a stylized auspicious throne motif rendered in low relief characteristic of Mon hammered coinage. The design occupies the majority of the flan, with the device executed in a schematic, abstracted manner typical of the Hamsavati mint tradition. The irregular flan edges and granular surface texture reflect the hand-hammered production technique employed throughout the kingdom's coinage period. |

| Reverse description | Reverse field displaying an indistinct or undefined punch mark, heavily worn and difficult to resolve into a coherent design. The surface exhibits the characteristic rough texture and flan irregularities associated with hammered Mon minor coinage of the Hamsavati period. The mark appears as a series of incuse linear impressions without clearly identifiable iconographic content, consistent with the use of a simple counter-punch or die on this smallest denomination. |
