-The ''' Travancore rupee''' was a type of currency issued by the State of [[Travancore]], now mainly a part of [[Kerala]] in [[South India]]. The rupee was largely a newer currency in comparison to the older currencies of [[Kerala]] such as the [[Travancore Fanam|''Fanams'']], ''Achus'', ''Chuckrams'' as well as the ''Kasu'' (or Cash). Its creation was probably intended for the increased trading with [[British India]] and the high-value transactions therein.
