Description: Fanams of Gold and Silver remained in circulation in the Kandyan kingdom for many years after the Dutch occupation of the coast. The design is that of the Malabar Vira raya fanam. The `Sinhala panama', struck by the king. The metal is silver, often very base; a few show a slight admixture of gold, from which it may be inferred that this coin has been gradually debased from an original metal of the Kotte gold fanam of 1554.
