Archaic Coinage of Godavari Valley and the Deccan

This Volume presents us with a rare gift, the detailed and fascinating story of a Hitherto-poorly understood series of local punch-marked silver coins, those of the Godavari valley and neighboring regions.

This book encapsulates the outcome of a very large and very detailed study project into the many sources of this local PMC series, made available through official channels as well as by the very active numismatic fraternity of the Godavari Region. A number of chapters catch the eye, such as the exploration of the origins of the symbols struck on the coins, which Dr. Kulkarni Demonstates can be traced back to the megalithic culture.
