<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Amit Vyas, post: 8216716, member: 117268&quot;]Hi. Any ideas as to which creature this punch on Mauryan PMCs might represent? G&amp;H describes it as a rhinoceros (mark 320), which I find unconvincing because of the morphology of the creature depicted: in particular, the shape of the horn. Pieper (AICR) calls it a unicorn (nos. 92-94), which again seems a bit unconvincing given that they do not figure prominently in Indian mythology.</p><p><br /></p><p>Maurya Dynasty Karshapana, Gupta &amp; Hardaker Series III, Type 322 (3.2 g, 19.5 mm)</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1442367[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1442366[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
