| Obverse description | Obverse features the Baybayin script character 'Ma' (ᜋ) incuse-struck in relief against a flat field, rendered in a bold, archaic calligraphic style characteristic of pre-colonial Philippine goldsmithing. The character occupies the majority of the flan, which is irregular and slightly convex due to the hand-hammered production technique. The overall appearance is consistent with high-purity native gold, displaying a warm, rich yellow luster. |
