I've had a look and this is the closest I've found so far:

http://www.ebay.in/itm/1000-YEAR-OLD-RAJARAJA-CHOLA-COPPER-COIN-VERY-RARE-MINT-CONDITION-/230836446635 (http://www.ebay.in/itm/1000-YEAR-OLD-RAJARAJA-CHOLA-COPPER-COIN-VERY-RARE-MINT-CONDITION-/230836446635)

Although I suspect this is might be a tourist copy (the one you have).

250Rs is about £3.50
