| Beschrijving voorzijde | A bull (nandi) depicted in profile facing right occupies the central field of the flan, rendered in a stylized South Indian artistic idiom characteristic of medieval copper coinage. A prominent crescent moon symbol is placed above the bull in the upper field. The devices are struck in relatively high relief against a granular, irregular field surface typical of hammered copper kasu of this period. A row of pellets or decorative dots appears along the left margin of the flan. The overall design reflects the dynastic emblem of the Pallava tradition as continued by the Perunjinga chiefs of Sendamangalam. |

Perunjinga was a Pallava chieftain who managed the remarkable political feat of remaining nominally subordinate to the Hoysala and Pandya kingdoms simultaneously while effectively ruling his territory around Sendamangalam with considerable autonomy. His coinage, issued across a reign spanning five decades, reflects that independence more than his formal vassal status would suggest. The copper kasu circulated within a compact regional economy in the Tamil Nadu interior, far removed from the major port-driven trade networks of the coast.
