| 正面描述 | A royal crown depicted in full face at centre field, rendered in a primitive but bold style characteristic of early French colonial coinage. The crown features a rounded base band adorned with two rows of pellets, surmounted by arching elements and three fleurs-de-lis at the top. The design fills most of the flan and is unaccompanied by any legend or inscription. The irregular flan and crude striking are typical of locally produced hammered bronze coinage of the period. |

The Compagnie des Indes received its revised charter in 1719 under John Law's restructuring of French colonial finance, and the Pondicherry bronzes of 1723 were among the first coinage issues produced under that reorganized authority. The Company struck these locally for petty trade in its southeastern Indian territories, where French commercial footholds were perpetually contested by both the British East India Company and local Mughal successor states.
