| Obverse description | Within a raised octagonal border, a stylised feline creature (kuching, or cat) is depicted in profile facing right, its body rendered in a naive but vigorous low-relief style typical of early Bruneian tin coinage. A small circular perforation pierces the centre of the flan. The creature's head is turned to face the viewer with a clearly defined circular eye, its haunches and tail curling around the central hole. The entire design is contained within a flat, recessed field bounded by a plain raised rim following the octagonal outline of the coin. |
