| Beschrijving voorzijde | Heavily worn irregular flan displaying a crudely rendered fish symbol in the central field, the traditional dynastic emblem of the Pandya rulers. The design is characteristic of the primitive hammered coinage of medieval South India, with the device occupying the majority of the flat field. Surface patination is deep black with areas of granular corrosion consistent with age and circulation. The strike is off-center and the flan edges are ragged, typical of hand-struck issues of this period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Pandya dynasty reached its political peak during precisely this period, recapturing Madurai from the Cholas around 1216 and eventually extending control across much of southern India before the Khalji and Tughlaq invasions devastated the kingdom in the early 14th century. The kasu was the dynasty's primary small-denomination copper unit, circulating through the busy trade networks of the Coromandel coast at a moment when Pandya commercial power was at its height.
