| Reverse description | Central field bears a circular border enclosing Telugu script characters reading 'SRI VEE RA', an honorific royal epithet associated with the Madurai Nayak rulers. The inscription is arranged within a beaded or linear circular frame, rendered in low relief on the irregular copper flan. The legends are somewhat crude in execution, consistent with the hand-cast coinage tradition of the period. |
