Lucky Cuss Pillar of the Community United States 4883 Posts	Posted 05/23/2016 8:17 pm 1808 East India Company X (Ten) Cash This turned up in a "bargain" bin today. Struck in Birmingham, as I understand it virtually all of these actually never reached India due to the sinking of the East Indiaman Admiral Gardner in 1809, and that specimens are widely available today is on account of their having been salvaged from the wreck in 1985. The exchange rate for these was pretty complicated. 10 cash equalled 2 falus or 1 dudu. 8 dudus made a fanam, with 12 fanams to a rupee, and 42 fanams to a pagoda. Colligo ergo sum Report this Post to the Staff
Kamnaskires Pillar of the Community United States 7066 Posts	Posted 05/23/2016 9:54 pm Cool coin - and thread, Lucky Cuss. Okay, let's take this to ancient India for a bit...or, more accurately, the northern part of the Indian subcontinent. I'll kick in a couple examples from my Kushan collection for the thread. Kushan bronze coins are typically in bad shape after so many centuries, often with verdigris and occasional bronze disease...and production standards were likely pretty poor to begin with. So for my first three (all tetradrachms from the reign of Kanishka I) I'll just include individual sides of some selected coins.the other sides of these particular examples are well worn and may have been struck from worn dies. I show both sides of the last (Vima Kadphises) coin since they are in decent shape. Kanishka I (c. 127 - 152 AD) This reverse shows the god Vado running, left. Kanishka I (c. 127 - 152 AD) This reverse shows the nimbate lunar deity Mao. Kanishka I (c. 127 - 152 AD) This reverse show a four-armed Oesho (Siva?) standing facing, head turned to left, nimbate, holding various attributes, Bactrian legend right, tamgha at left Vima Kadphises (c. 100 - 128 AD) Obv: King standing left, sacrificing over altar at left, trident to left, tamgha and club to right, Greek legend Rev: Siva standing facing, the bull Nandi standing to right, Karosthi legend Report this Post to the Staff
