| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse displays two interlocked cursive letter pairs, generally interpreted as 'GC' (for Governor and Company) or 'CC', arranged in a monogram device referencing the English East India Company's trading authority in the Carnatic region. The design is struck in low relief on an irregular flan with a plain border. The monogram's exact form varies by die, reflecting the primitive hammered production technique. No additional legend or inscription accompanies the device. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Nawabs of the Carnatic occupied an increasingly uncomfortable political position throughout the 18th century — nominally subordinate to the Nizam of Hyderabad, simultaneously courted and coerced by the British East India Company and French Compagnie des Indes. Local copper coinage like this cash circulated through that contested terrain, used in bazaars from Madras to Arcot while European powers fought proxy wars through successive nawabs. The dynasty effectively ceased independent authority well before 1801, when the British finally formalized control following the death of Nawab Umdat ul-Umara.
