| Obverse description | Central field depicts a crudely rendered quadruped animal in profile, most likely a bull or elephant, facing right, occupying the majority of the inner circle. Partially legible script characters, consistent with an Indic script tradition, appear above the animal in the upper field. The design is enclosed within a plain inner ring, itself surrounded by an outer border of raised pellets or bosses arranged uniformly around the circumference. The overall execution is rough, consistent with a cast replica of an Arakan-type coin, with flat, irregular relief throughout. |

| Reverse description | Central field displays a crude rendering of the Srivatsa symbol, a auspicious looped or interlaced curvilinear motif of South and Southeast Asian numismatic tradition, occupying the center of the inner circle. Faint, partially legible Indic script characters appear around the periphery of the inner field. Two concentric borders frame the design: an inner ring of raised pellets and an outer ring of larger bosses, mirroring the obverse border treatment. The overall style is characteristic of cast Arakan coinage types, executed with minimal refinement consistent with a modern replica. |
