| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse features the monogram of the East India Company, rendered as the intertwined letters 'C' and 'E' flanking a central vertical element, all enclosed within a decorative arch of radiating lines or pellets along the upper border. A horizontal line divides the lower field, below which additional design elements are present. The monogram device occupies the central field in a bold, stylized fashion characteristic of early East India Company copper coinage struck at the Madras Mint. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The "Dudu" denomination was a local South Indian accounting unit used in the Madras Presidency, where the East India Company operated mints at both Madras and Cuddalore. These copper pieces circulated alongside an already chaotic mixture of indigenous coinage, and the Company's decision to issue them reflected a pragmatic accommodation of local monetary custom rather than any attempt at standardization. The fifty-year production window is wide enough that attribution to specific mint years within the series is rarely possible from the coin alone.
