| Summary, etc | he present work treats of the “Coins of Ancient India” from the earliest times down to the end of the sixth century A.D. The well-known coins of the Satraps of Sarashtra and of the Gupta kings of Magadha are not included, as they have very recently been fully described in the Journal of the Royal Asiatic Society. A variety of earliest Indian coins, however, unlike those circulated in West Asia, were stamped bars of metal, suggesting that the innovation of stamped currency was added to a pre-existing form of token currency which had already been present in the Janapadas and Mahajanapada kingdoms of the Early historic India. The kingdoms that minted their own coins included Gandhara, Kuntala, Kuru, Panchala, Magadha, Shakya, Surasena and Surashtra etc. |
