Comment :
The Gandhara Janapada, one of the ancient Mahajanapadas (16 large states) of early historical India, is known for its unique and significant contributions to early Indian coinage.
Early Gandhara coinage (circa 6th–4th century BCE) reflects a transition from punch-marked coins to artistic and symbolic designs, influenced by both Indian and Hellenistic traditions.
