| Aversbeschreibung | Irregular rectangular silver flan bearing five principal Series III punch marks applied by the issuing authority, comprising a solar symbol with radiating rays in the upper field, a stylized animal figure (likely a bull or elephant) prominently punched in the central zone, flanked by geometric and symbolic devices. Additional secondary banker's marks are scattered throughout the field, impressed at various orientations by merchants or money-changers to attest the coin's weight and silver purity. The surface is characteristically uneven, consistent with the hammered punch-marked coinage tradition of the Magadha region. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
The Nanda dynasty, which preceded the Mauryan Empire, is thought to have been the first Indian polity to field a standing army funded through systematic taxation — the karshapana serving as the workhorse of that fiscal machinery. Chandragupta Maurya displaced the last Nanda king around 321 BC, making Series III issues potentially contemporary with that transition and among the final coinage struck under Nanda authority before the dynasty was extinguished entirely.
