Own a rare piece of ancient Indian numismatic history with this exceptional Cast Copper Kakani from the Sunga Kingdom (187-75 BC). Minted during the 2nd century BC in the Madhya Pradesh region, this coin exemplifies the sophisticated monetary system of one of India’s most significant post-Mauryan dynasties.

The Sunga period marked a crucial transition in Indian history, characterized by territorial consolidation and cultural renaissance. This particular kakani features distinctive iconography: a hollow cross adorns the obverse, while the reverse displays an intricate tree within a railing design with multiple branches—symbolic elements that reflected the dynasty’s religious and cultural values.

Weighing 2.76 grams, this copper specimen displays remarkable preservation for its age, graded in Very Fine condition. The casting technique and wear patterns authenticate its ancient origins and extensive circulation history. What makes this kakani particularly desirable for serious collectors is its scarcity; few examples survive in such commendable condition, making it a genuine treasure for numismatists and history enthusiasts.

This coin represents both an investment in tangible ancient history and a window into the sophisticated civilization of the Sunga Kingdom. Ideal for collectors seeking authentic artifacts with documented provenance.
