| Aversbeschreibung | Highly stylized and degenerate Indo-Sasanian bust facing right, derived from late Sasanian prototypes. The effigy is rendered in a schematic fashion with the head reduced to two elongated pellet-like forms, surrounded by a beaded border. Facial features and regalia, once clearly defined in earlier issues, have become largely abstract through successive generations of copying. The field is heavily patinated with no surviving legend. |

| Reversbeschreibung | Schematic battle scene depicting a mounted horseman trampling a prostrate victim beneath the horse's hooves, with the fallen figure's sword visible below; the horseman raises his sword menacingly toward a second adversary positioned to the right. The composition is rendered in a highly stylized and degenerate manner characteristic of late Gadhaiya coinage, with the figures reduced to abstract pellet and curve forms. The scene ultimately derives from the fire altar and attendant motif of Sasanian prototypes, transformed through regional artistic tradition into a martial tableau. No legend is present in the field. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
The Gadhaiya Paisa tradition descends from imitations of Chaulukya-period Gadhaiya coins, which themselves were degraded copies of Sasanian drachms introduced into Gujarat and the Deccan through centuries of trade and tribute. By the time the Silaharas of Konkan were striking their own variants in the twelfth century, the original Sasanian prototype had been abstracted almost beyond recognition through successive copying. The Silahara dynasty controlled the Konkan coast and parts of the northern Deccan as feudatories under the Rashtrakutas and later the Chalukyas of Kalyani before asserting greater independence.
Billon content varies considerably across this series, reflecting localized control over metal supply rather than any standardized mint policy.
