Description

Struck during the reign of Jaitra Simha of the Chauhan dynasty in the 13th century, this silver drachm represents the transitional coinage style of Northern India. Weighing approximately 4.38 grams and minted in an irregular round fabric, it reflects the hand-struck techniques typical of the period.

The obverse displays a lion facing left, enclosed within concentric beaded circles, symbolizing valor and royal strength in Rajput iconography.

The reverse features a three-line Devanagari legend within a dotted border, accompanied by sun and moon symbols flanking the inscription—traditional markers of continuity and divine legitimacy.

This type holds strong appeal for collectors focused on Rajput states, medieval Indian history, and symbolic coinage. Its distinctive motifs and historical context make it a meaningful addition to a specialized collection.
