| Obverse description | Depiction of the deity Shiva standing in the field, his matted hair (jata) rendered in high relief above his head. To his left, a prominent trishul (trident) is shown upright, serving as his principal divine attribute. To Shiva's right, the figure of Parvati appears seated or standing in close proximity, consistent with the Uma-Maheshvara iconographic tradition. The design is executed in a schematic, low-relief hammered style typical of later Nayaka copper coinage, with flan irregularities and surface patination obscuring finer details. |
