An Excellent Seringapatam medal (ಶ್ರೀರಂಗಪಟ್ಟಣ) in Bronze.

The Seringapatam medal (Sri Ranga Pattana - ಶ್ರೀರಂಗಪಟ್ಟಣ), commissioned by the East India Company in 1801, was a Conrad Heinrich Küchler-designed military medal distributed to those soldiers who contributed to the British victory in the 1799 Battle of Seringapatam against the armies of Tipu Sultan, ruler of the Kingdom of Mysore. Many of the medals were manufactured at the Soho Mint in Birmingham. A smaller version of the medal was manufactured in the Calcutta Mint. Notably, medals were issued to all participants, although their materials were of various values.Those given to the highest-ranking commanders were made of gold, those given to intermediate ranks were silver, silver-gilt, or bronze, and those given to lesser ranks were made of tin or possibly pewter. The reverse of the medal displays the storming of the fort, with the sun at its meridian. The obverse shows the British lion trampling Tipu's emblem, the tiger.
