Beschrijving voorzijde Central field features a striding elephant facing right, rendered in relief within a plain inner circle surrounded by a beaded border. Above the elephant, a stylised symbol or device appears in the upper field. Kannada script legend arcs around the periphery of the coin reading 'Sri Chamundi', invoking the tutelary deity of the Mysore royal house. The overall design is characteristic of the vernacular coinage tradition of the Mysore princely state.

Aanvullende informatie

Krishnaraja Wodeyar III ascended the Mysore throne in 1811 at the age of eleven, placed there by the British East India Company following the death of his adoptive father. The Company retained effective control of the state throughout his reign, making Mysore a subsidiary ally under the Subsidiary Alliance system — yet the durbar retained the right to strike its own copper coinage, one of the few visible markers of continued royal prerogative.

C#171b distinguishes this variety within the broader Cash series. Mysore's copper issues of this period are frequently found corroded or weakly struck at the margins, a consequence of inconsistent die pressure at the Mysore mint rather than circulation damage.
