Reverse description The reverse bears the date of issue in Western numerals, with Tamil script below reading 'ப௪' (translating as 'Quarter Fanam' or a fractional value designation used in the Coromandel Coast trading context). The numerals and Tamil characters are arranged centrally in the field in a straightforward, functional layout. The script combination of Latin numerals and Tamil legend reflects the bilingual nature of VOC coinage intended for local commerce in southeastern India. The overall style is plain and utilitarian, with no additional border ornamentation.
