| 裏面の説明 | The reverse bears a Kannada-script inscription disposed across the field, reading 'Sri Vira', a royal honorific associated with the Madurai Nayaka rulers. The lettering is rendered in a cursive Kannada hand typical of the period, occupying the central field of the flan. The surface shows considerable wear and corrosion consistent with extended circulation, rendering some character strokes indistinct. The flan edges are irregular, reflecting the hammered manufacture standard for this denomination. |

The Madurai Nayaks operated a fragmented and locally administered mint system, and attribution of undated copper kasu issues to specific rulers within the 1630–1730 window remains contested among specialists. The lion-type kasu circulated alongside a bewildering variety of regional coppers, many visually similar enough that contemporary traders relied as much on weight as on type recognition.
