<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dltsrq, post: 5285157, member: 75482&quot;]I thought I would share this article, which may be of interest. I have found it very useful over the years. Joe Cribb, formerly Keeper of Coins at the British Museum, examines the interrelationship of Late Kushan bronzes minted in the Punjab and contemporary Kushano-Sasanian bronzes of Gandharan type, demonstrating that the two formed a single currency zone. When found together in hoards, coins of like module are hoarded together with the module steadily declining throughout the period. The author then uses this parallel decline to refine the chronology of the period. The link below is only the text but I imagine the figures (plates) can be found online with a little diligence.</p><p>&nbsp; <a href="https://www.academia.edu/33859244/Gandharan_Hoards_of_Kushano_Sasanian_and_late_Kushan_Coppers_in_Coin_Hoards_vol_VI_1981_pp_93_108" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.academia.edu/33859244/Gandharan_Hoards_of_Kushano_Sasanian_and_late_Kushan_Coppers_in_Coin_Hoards_vol_VI_1981_pp_93_108" rel="nofollow">https://www.academia.edu/33859244/Gandharan_Hoards_of_Kushano_Sasanian_and_late_Kushan_Coppers_in_Coin_Hoards_vol_VI_1981_pp_93_108</a></p><p>Cribb, Joe (1981), &#039;Gandharan Hoards of Kushano-Sasanian and Late Kushan Coppers&#039; <u>in</u> <i>Coin Hoards VI,</i> Royal Numismatic Society, London, pp. 93-108, figs. 8-11.</p><p><br /></p><p>There is also a follow-up by the same author in <i>Coin Hoards VII.</i>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
