| Obverse description | A stylized lotus seed with root or shoot depicted in the field, rendered in low relief against an unadorned background. The central device consists of a raised globular seed form surrounded by a concentric circular element representing the seed pod or root structure. The design is primitive and abstract in character, consistent with the hand-hammered coinage tradition of the Khmer monetary system. No legend or inscription is present. The flan is irregular in shape, with slightly uneven edges typical of hand-cut billon planchets of this period. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is essentially plain, bearing no intentional design or inscription. The surface exhibits the characteristic texture of a hammered billon flan, with irregular tool and anvil marks visible across the flat field, resulting from the hand-striking process. No legend, symbol, or device is present. The rough, unfinished appearance is consistent with the utilitarian nature of this low-denomination Cambodian coinage. Minor flow lines and surface irregularities reflect the primitive minting technique employed throughout the issue period. |
