Additional information

Damajadasri II ruled for no more than two years, squeezed between longer-reigning members of the Chastana dynastic line. The Western Satraps kept silver coinage flowing even through compressed reigns like this one, which is precisely why short-rule issues tend to survive in respectable numbers — production continued on near-automatic administrative footing regardless of who held the title.

Pieper 3393 is among the tighter attributions in the series, distinguishing Damajadasri II from the closely related types of his predecessor Damajadasri I by specific legend variants.
