About Extremely Fine, Extremely Rare.
Till now no coins of Satyadaman were reported with complete digits of the year. Hence it was presumed that he ruled sometime in Saka 120s. This is for the first time that we find this coin with full date and that helps pin point the exact place of this ruler in the chronology of the Western Kshatrapas.
