1 The silver punch-marked coins, issued by various janapadas during the times of Lord Buddha and Lord Mahavira are India's earliest coins ever. The term 'janapada' refers to ancient Indian kingdoms that existed between the sixth and third centuries BC. Although the names of one hundred and seventy five janapadas are listed in 'Bhuvankosha' chapters of the Puranas, ancient Buddhist texts like Anguttara Nikaya make frequent references to sixteen great kingdoms and republics (Solas Mahajanapadas) which had evolved and flourished in a belt stretching from Gandhara in the northwest to Anga in the eastern part of the Indian subcontinent and included parts of the trans-Vindhyan region; prior to the rise of Jainism and Buddhism in India. These Janapadas, rose to prominence in around 600 BC and except for Magadha, which subdued them all, retained their independence for very brief periods only. Most of the janapadas never issued coins. Only a handful of janapadas, major ones listed in Anguttara Nikaya (as sodasa mahajanapadas or 16 great kingdoms) of the times of Buddha (Jain literature also lists Mahajanpadas with little change of names and some references in the Puranas also); were prominent enough to have issued punch- marked coins, also known as local type PMCs, because their find-spots are generally restricted to the geographical area of the respective janapada and also due to which factor, most of this series is extremely rare. This is a collection of historical importance, a great opportunity to acquire the complete set of all the 16 mahajanpadas (as listed in Anguttara Nikaya) as a single lot. First ever appeared on a sale. Exceedingly rare.

(a) (b) a) Gandhara, 600-300 BC, Silver Shatamana, weight standard, 11.15g, Two symbol type. AA symbol Pattern. Geometrical mark. Bar type flan & Scyphate. The present coin, with a broad and medium flan, represents the early phase of this janapada. (Rajgor Dilip, Series 34, Type 540, pp.101). Extremely fine, rare. Gandhara extended from Kabul in Afghanistan to Peshawar in Pakistan, with capital at Taxila. It was a very ancient janapada, finding multiple references in Mahabharata. Gandhari, the mother of Kauravas was a princess of Gandhara. Its territories included east Afghanistan and north-west of the Punjab (modern districts of Peshawar and Rawalpindi) b) Vajji, 575-450 BC, Silver Double Karshapana, 7.02g, Single Symbol Coin. Extremely fine, rare. Vajjis were the most important republic of Buddhist era, situated in modern Vaishali-Muzaffarpur districts of Bihar. Their references are replete in numerous chronicles. The Vajjis or Vrijjis included eight confederated clans of whom the Licchhavis were the most important. The mother of Bhagwan Mahavira was a Licchavi princess. Vaishali (modern Basarh in the Vaishali District of North Bihar) was their capital. The Second Buddhist Council was held at Vaishali.

c ( ) (d) c) Vatsa, 500-410 BC, Silver Karshapana, 3.53g, Four Symbol Coin, ABCD pattern, Elephant, Bow/Arrow, Scorpion with sun above, Scorpion with fish above.

The Puranas give a list of 27 kings of Kaushambi from Parikshit to Kshema. Udayana was its famous ruler, a contemporary of the Lord Buddha. d) Magadha, 600-200 BC, Silver Karshapana, 3.45g, five Symbol Coin, ABCDE pattern.

Extremely fine+, extremely rare in this condition. Magadha was one of the most prominent and prosperous of mahajanpadas. Profusely referred to in Rig Veda, Atharva Veda, Mahabharata, Puranas and Buddhist & Jain literature of the time, its territories corresponded to the modern districts of Patna and Gaya in southern Bihar and parts of Bengal in the east. The capital city of Pataliputra (patna). Its earliest capital was Girivraja or Rajagriha (modern Rajgir). It was an active center of Jainism in ancient times.

Kashi Janapada (with capital at Varanasi) comprised of modern day Varanasi, Jaunpur, Ghazipur & Mirzapur districts of eastern U.P. It was one of the most important janapadas of ancient India. Engaged in incessant battles with neighboring Kosala, it lost its independence rather early (at the hands of Ajatshatru of Magadha, who was a contemporary of Buddha). A short-lived independence makes its coinage extremely rare. f) Chedi, 500-400 BC, Silver Karshapana, 3.43g, Four symbol Coin. ABCC pattern. Six-armed symbol and geometric symbols.
