| Beschrijving voorzijde | Garuda, the divine eagle, depicted in profile moving to the right, rendered in a stylized South Indian artistic tradition. A ceremonial umbrella (chattra) appears prominently above the figure, symbolizing royal authority and divine protection. A conch (shankha) and discus (chakra), the sacred attributes of Lord Vishnu, are positioned on either side near the hands of Garuda. The design is set within a beaded border, characteristic of cast copper coinage of the Madurai region. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Banas were a minor feudatory lineage operating under the shifting pressures of late Nayaka political fragmentation in the Tamil south. By the 1690s, the Madurai Nayaka sultanate had effectively collapsed, leaving tributary chiefs briefly able to issue their own copper currency before Arcot and later Thanjavur interests absorbed the region. This kasu belongs to that narrow window of local monetary autonomy.
