ꯁꯟꯗꯣꯛꯅꯥ ꯇꯥꯛꯄꯥMedieval Pandya royal insignia from a Chola coin.png
  • An early silver kasu of Rajendra Chola (the Chola dynasty, south India).
  • Original "Seated Tiger" design is (also used in a gold fanam coin) seen.
    • Obverse: Tiger (Chola symbol) seated right faces towards two upright fishes (Pandya symbol) with Bow (Chera symbol) behind and the Umbrella above.
    • Reverse: Uttama/Chola - in Nagari script.

The coin is discussed by C. H. Biddulph in his 1966 monogram on Coins of the Cholas. In his catalog he lists this coin #26 as by Rajendra I (1012-1044 AD) after he assumed the title Uttama Chola. Michael Mitchiner (#713-725) notes that Chattopadhyaya (1977, p53) disagreed.
