| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field bearing the Tamil legend 'Tiru Vekata' inscribed in Tamil script, rendered in the bold, cursive style characteristic of Madurai Nayak coinage. The characters are arranged compactly within the flan, with the inscription occupying the majority of the obverse field. The coin exhibits an irregular flan typical of hammered copper issues of the period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Muttu Krishnappa Nayak ruled Madurai for roughly eight years before dying without a clear succession, triggering a prolonged dynastic struggle that destabilized the kingdom well into the mid-17th century. These copper kasu were struck under a regime that remained formally subordinate to the Vijayanagara empire even as that empire was fragmenting after the catastrophic defeat at Talikota in 1565 — the Nayaks governed as governors-turned-sovereigns in a political limbo that their coinage quietly reflects.
