| Obverse description | An elephant striding to the right with trunk raised upward, rendered in a stylized archaic manner characteristic of early Satavahana coinage. The elephant motif, a royal symbol of power and auspiciousness, occupies the central field. The design is enclosed or accompanied by a Prakrit legend in Brahmi script bearing the name and title of the issuing ruler, Rano Siri Satakarni. |
