Book Description
About the Book
The beginning of ancient Indian coinage can be traced between the 1st millennium BCE to the 6th Century BCE. This stage comprised coins that were made of copper and silver.

The coins found in ancient Indian history were mainly stamped bars of metal. The metal-stamped bars were inspired by the currency that was in circulation during the Janpadas in the early historical phase and evolved further with the emergence of different dynasties.

Preface
THE 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 Surashtra 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, the former by Pandit Bhagwân Lâl, and the latter by Mr. V. Smith. In a second volume I propose to deal with the "Coins of Medieval India," from A.D. 600 down to the Muhammadan conquest. This new volume will include (1) the Rajahs of Kashmir; (2) the Shahis of Gandhara; (3) the Kulachuris of Chedi; (4) the Chandelas of Mahoba; (5) the Tomaras of Delhi; (6) the Chohans of Ajmer; with the later coins of (7) the Sisodiyas of Mewår; and (8) the Pundîrs of Kangra.
