As before, although the image looks OK without glasses you really want to use red/cyan 3D glasses to see this coin.
This enigmatic coinage was struck in India, 800-1300 AD. It's usually called “Gadhaiya Paisa”. I realize I know almost nothing about Indian coinage during this time. I have Michael Mitchiner's Indo-Greek and Indo-Scythian Coinage, covering coins up to the 4th century, but the rest of Indian coinage is a mystery to me until the British Raj period.
Is there a good book to get started with the mysterious pre-Islamic coins of India?
