| Obverse description | Incuse conch shell (Sankha) device struck in the center of the flat face of this irregular hammered silver bullet-shaped planchet. The conch shell motif, a sacred Buddhist and royal symbol of Ayutthaya, is rendered in low relief within a recessed field, with its characteristic spiral whorls visible. The surrounding field is plain and irregular, consistent with the hand-hammered pod duang coinage tradition of the Kingdom of Ayutthaya. |

The surface exhibits the characteristic dome-shaped form produced by folding and hammering the silver blank, with visible hammer marks and natural surface irregularities typical of Ayutthayan hand-struck coinage. No inscriptions, devices, or mint marks are present. |
