The English settled in Armagon in 1629. In 1639 the English EIC company received the right to strike coins from the Vijayanagar King Venkata III. They struck small gold fanams which were imitated by the Indians at many other nearby towns in Eastern India - these coins are poorly studied and understood, and the location where these were minted is unknown.
