<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Spaniard, post: 6355985, member: 90248&quot;]The ladies were just as bad!....Queen Didda Rani became one of the most ruthless rulers of Kashmir. Being clever and manipulative she ruled for more than 40 years, firstly as regent for her son, whom some say she killed, and then as sole ruler until her death at the age of 79 in 1003. She also had two grandsons murdered at very young ages to keep her grip on power..Not someone to mess with!</p><p><br /></p><p>Diddarani 980-1003 AD</p><p>Copper Kaserah or Punchshi 18mm (5.62gr)</p><p>Obverse- Goddess Ardochsho/Lakshmi seated facing in half lotus position, with Nagari legend &#039;Sri to left &#039;didda&#039; to right</p><p>Reverse- Queen standing facing and sacrificing at altar holding trident, with Nagari legend &#039;Diva&#039; bottom right</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1251677[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
