| Reverse description | A Chola tiger passant facing right, depicted in an energetic, stylised manner typical of medieval South Indian hammered coinage. The figure is framed within a double raised circular border, with an encircling legend in Tamil or Grantha script occupying the field between the inner and outer borders. The overall fabric is irregular and lightly struck, consistent with hand-hammered fractional silver issues of the Chola dynasty under Rajendra I. |
