正面铭文	AUSPICIO REGIS ET SENATUS ANGLIAE UNITED EAST INDIA COMPANY 48 TO ONE RUPEE (Translation: By the authority of the King and Parliament of England)
背面描述	The bale mark of the United East India Company occupies the central field, comprising the characteristic interlaced cipher of the Company. A broad, flat raised rim surrounds the device, bearing the incuse circumferential legend UNITED EAST INDIA COMPANY followed by the date 1797, the whole presenting a bold and austere official character typical of Company coinage of this period.

附加信息	The 1797 Madras Presidency copper dub sits at an odd intersection of colonial monetary pragmatism and local South Indian convention. The East India Company inherited a fragmented coinage system across its Indian territories and repeatedly struggled to impose standardization — the tiny 1/48 rupee denomination survived precisely because local bazaar trade demanded it, regardless of what the Company's accountants preferred. Pridmore lists two varieties for this date, distinguished by minor die differences in the exergue treatment.
