Can any assist me in the identification of this coin.

Thanks for the sources, I will read up on them.

I am sure that I have a chola 1 stater variant. It differs from this one on numista

PetrusAscanus is correct. This is an "octopus man" type coin from Sri Lanka and Southern India from the period of roughly 1000-1200 AD. The denomination is a copper kahavanu. These are often attributed to RajaRaja Chola, 985-1014 AD, but many similar coins were made by rulers following him. The references PetrusAscanus has given have photos of some of these variations, so with the coin in hand you may be able to match one of them and determine if it is actually RajaRaja Chola or one of his successors.

This is the only match I could make to the obverse. Thanks a million for all the help.

I only have coins from the links I provided, not earlier. So I did not really recognize yours exact

No worries, I can do further research in time, do you know of any other sources of information with regard to the coin?
