This exceptional copper heavy coin originates from the Satavahana Dynasty, one of ancient India’s most influential empires that flourished during the 1st century BC. Minted in the Nashik region, this numismatic treasure weighs 8.44 grams and exemplifies the sophisticated coinage systems of that era.

The obverse features a striking lion facing rightward with an auspicious swastika symbol positioned above it—both powerful symbols in ancient Indian iconography representing strength and prosperity. The reverse displays traces of additional symbols, characteristic of coins from this period that have weathered centuries of circulation.

Graded in Fine condition, this coin bears the patina and wear marks of genuine historical use, making it an authentic artifact rather than a pristine replica. Its scarce classification adds significant numismatic value for serious collectors. The Satavahana coins are highly sought-after due to their historical importance in documenting early Indian monetary systems and artistic traditions.

This piece appeals to ancient history enthusiasts, numismatists, and Indian heritage collectors seeking genuine artifacts that bridge commerce and culture. Its provenance from the Nashik region further enhances its historical context and collectible appeal.
