Comment :
Kadambas of Goa were a branch of the Kadambas of Banavasi, who ruled the region Belgaum, Dharward, and parts of Uttara Kannada districts in Karnataka and the modern Goa. Usually, the Samvatsara years are inscribed in Devanagari, much like the reverse legend. However,some rare issues with the name inscribed in Halekannada script have surfaced recently. Extremely fine, Rare.
