| Obverse description | Crowned lion sejant facing right with open mouth, rendered in an incuse circle. The design was applied by hammer strike over the attachment marks of a lathe-turned blank, imparting a characteristic irregular relief. The stylized leonine figure displays a prominent crown and raised forepaw, executed in the bold, schematic tradition of Melayu Kingdom coinage. |

| Reverse description | Stylized bust of a lion facing left, contained within an ovular incuse punch. The surrounding field retains a clearly visible circular lathe artifact, a concentric ring groove resulting from the turning of the blank prior to striking. The design is boldly impressed and displays the characteristic schematic animal imagery associated with Melayu copper coinage of the period. |
