| Beschrijving voorzijde | Crude hammered copper flan of irregular rectangular form bearing a central device consisting of a stylized symbolic motif, likely a regal or dynastic emblem of the Gond rulers of Devgarh, struck in low relief. The design appears to show a rounded symbol with subsidiary elements below, all executed in the characteristic rough, bold style of provincial Indian hammered coinage. The field is uneven due to the hand-struck nature of the flan, with no legible legend present. The overall design is typical of feudatory Gond issues, prioritizing symbolic content over epigraphic detail. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Gond kingdoms of central India occupied an awkward numismatic position — nominally independent but increasingly subject to Maratha and later British pressure, their coinages were local and functional, produced for markets where Mughal and Maratha currency already circulated. Devgarh, situated in what is now eastern Maharashtra, was among the last Gond polities to maintain its own issues before absorption ended the need entirely.
KM#5 is a crude copper striking, as expected from a small court mint operating without the infrastructure of imperial production.
