Ponmalai has often been identified with 'Poonamallee' or Poovirundhavalli, which is presently a suburb of Chennai. But it is also the name of the fortress at Tiruchchirappalli and it is difficult to ascertain which of these two places these coins were struck at. The same mint-name has also been wrongly identified as 'Poonch' and 'Poona'.
