Mint state, Exceedingly rare.

The central punch consists of the images of Ram-Laxman-Bharat-Shatrughan in warrior pose. The other punches are struck in two concentric circular orbits. The inner orbit consists of 18 singly struck 8 petalled lotus punches as in a garland. The outer orbit punches consist of 2x Sri-Sri, 1x'Ahitagaja'and 1x'Kesari'in Kannada, and 4 groups of Boar-Lotus-Boar symbols interleaving the legend punches. The above coin is from a small hoard that had a mix of Nolamba, Ganga, and Kakatiya coins. The hoard is believed to be of the mint that changed hands of the Nolambas, Kakatiyas and the Gangas dynasties. 'Ahitagaja Kesari' is one of the common titles of the Kakatiyas adorned by many of the rulers of the dynasty starting from Prola-I. The coin fabric suggests that the coin is of period of transition between the Nolambas and the Kakatiyas. The above coin hence is assigned to Prola-I (1052-1076 CE).
