<p>[QUOTE=&quot;John Anthony, post: 2355572, member: 42773&quot;]This coin came with a slip that attributes it to Kashmir, Jagadeva, 12th-century. The obverse is supposedly a king seated, facing. Would that be Jagadeva? How can you tell? I see what appear to be letters to the right of the king. Are these of the Nagari script, and if so, how do you read them? I cannot find the Nagari alphabet online.</p><p><br /></p><p>The reverse is supposedly a goddess seated left. Would that be the goddess Sarasvati? Also, this coin is attributed to Kashmir, but the gold pagodas of Jagadeva are assigned to Vidarbha, which is central India. Are we talking about different mints or a disagreement concerning where any of the coins of Jagadeva were minted?</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m obviously a fish out of water here. Any help would be greatly appreciated.</p><p><br /></p><p>5.42g</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]480068[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
