Wow Echizento- that coin is excellent. Not only is it Medieval but also is made in the name of a Queen. Its often easy to forget that this is one of the few independent regions in the area. During this time most of India and South East Asia was ruled by the mighty Chola! India, ThamiNadu Thanjavur AR Kasu (Kahavanu) 20 mm x 4.26 grams Uttama Chola (970-985 AD) Obverse: Tiger (Chola symbol) seated right faces towards two upright fishes (Pandyan symbol): bow (Chera symbol) behind: all under an umbrella above. Reverse: Uttama / Chola - in Devanagari script ref: Mitchiner #713-725 ; Biddulph #26 Note: Rare. High Grade Example.
