| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse features a Devanagari legend reading 'Anka', arranged centrally within the field in a stylized manner characteristic of Chola-period epigraphy. The inscription is boldly struck, with the characters occupying the majority of the available flan area. The lettering is rendered in an archaic Grantha-influenced Devanagari style consistent with South Indian script conventions of the late 10th to mid-11th century. The surrounding field is plain, with no additional decorative elements or symbols present. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The kahavanu coinage of the Chola dynasty emerged during the imperial peak of Rajaraja I and Rajendra I, when the dynasty controlled much of South India and mounted naval expeditions as far as the Malay Peninsula and Sri Lanka. These fractional silver pieces circulated across a trade network that stretched well beyond the subcontract — into Southeast Asian ports where Chola commercial influence preceded formal military power. The anonymous attribution reflects genuine uncertainty about issuing authority within the dynasty rather than a cataloging gap.
