| Obverse description | Central device depicting a hamsa (sacred goose or Brahmin duck) in profile, rendered in a stylized Khmer artistic tradition, surrounded by a seed or grain motif in the field. The design is executed in low relief typical of hammered Cambodian silver coinage, with the figure occupying the majority of the flan. Khmer script inscriptions appear within the field around the central device, partially worn. The irregular flan and variable strike quality are characteristic of hand-hammered production from this period. |
