Synopsis
This book delves deep into the ancient world of Indian numismatics, unearthing the historical, political, and religious significance of coins in the Indian subcontinent. The author challenges traditional Western perspectives, arguing for the existence of indigenous Indian coinage dating back to a period preceding Greek influence. Through meticulous analysis of coin inscriptions, symbols, and archaeological evidence, the book sheds light on the development of coinage in India, its use in trade and governance, and its role in shaping religious and cultural practices. The author's insights provide a fresh understanding of India's rich and diverse past, challenging long-held assumptions about the origins and evolution of coinage in the region.
