| Beschrijving keerzijde | The central field displays a three-line Malayalam inscription reading 'ശ്രീ പത്മ നാഭ' (Sri Padma Nabha), a devotional reference to Lord Padmanabhan, the tutelary deity of the Travancore royal dynasty. The legend is set within an ornamental wreath of floral and foliate branches encircling the inscribed field, with the outer border finished in a ring of raised beading consistent with the obverse treatment. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Travancore maintained its own gold coinage well into the British Raj period, a privilege that persisted largely because the kingdom's rulers had cultivated a cooperative relationship with the East India Company and later the Crown. The pagoda denomination itself predates British influence in the region by centuries, rooted in South Indian temple economies where gold fractions of this type circulated as both currency and devotional offering.
KM#X9 designation places this outside the main sequence — an acknowledgment that its precise monetary role within the kingdom's late 19th-century fiscal system remains imperfectly documented.
