| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central device features the Sankha (sacred conch shell), the dynastic emblem of Travancore, rendered in stylized relief with decorative scroll-work and foliate embellishments. The conch is depicted in frontal view with a prominent spiral whorl and flanking decorative elements. This central motif is framed within a boldly struck eight-pointed star whose elongated triangular points extend toward the coin's rim, filling the field. The design is unlettered, with the star and conch together serving as the sole heraldic devices on the obverse. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Moolam Thirunal Rama Varma VI ruled Travancore under British paramountcy, and the cash denominations struck during his reign were produced at the state's own mint at Trivandrum — one of the few princely states permitted to maintain an independent coining operation through the colonial period. The 1 cash was the smallest denomination in active circulation, used primarily in bazaar trade where British India coinage rarely penetrated at this fractional level.
