| Beschrijving voorzijde | A Chola tiger in dynamic stride facing left, rendered in the characteristic South Indian hammered style with bold, deeply impressed lines conveying movement and power. The device is enclosed within a double beaded or raised circular border. A Tamil or Grantha legend encircles the central device within the dual circle, consistent with royal Chola coinage of the Rajendra I period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Rajendra I expanded the Chola empire further than any predecessor, launching naval campaigns that reached the Malay Peninsula and the Srivijaya kingdom between 1025 and 1030 — the longest-range offensive operation mounted by any South Asian polity of the medieval period. Coinage from his reign circulated across maritime trade routes well beyond the subcontinent.
The dual obverse format on this fraction is a known production anomaly within the kahavanu series, resulting from a misaligned or substituted die pairing rather than intentional design. HCSEA#715 documents it as a distinct variety.
