| Aanvullende informatie |
Kanishka I expanded the Kushan Empire to its greatest territorial extent, pushing south into the Gangetic plain and convening the fourth Buddhist council — traditionally dated to his reign — at Kashmir. His coinage reflects the empire's extraordinary religious pluralism: the same ruler issued coins invoking Iranian, Greek, Hindu, and Buddhist deities, often within the same series. The quarter dinar denomination served trade at a granular level across one of the ancient world's most active commercial corridors, linking Rome's eastern demand for silk and spice with Indian Ocean networks through Bactria.
