Degenerated Kali / Stylized boar. No inscriptions. 7mm, 0.32 grams. Travancore mint. Krause C-; Herrli #1.18.10. 

This type was issued in the Kingdom of Travancore in South India. Herrli states that these fanams were minted before the reign of Raja Bala Rama Varma III (1813-1846). These coins probably represent a very debased form of a normal gold fanam, since many of these coins show a 4 to 6 karat gold content.
