abstract
Ancient Indian coins from Pre-Mauryan era has been filled with a certain mystery as well as speculation. The coins in reference are punch marked coins. What is stamped in these coins have long since been considered symbols without really a clear meaning. The only ones which can be clearly understood are the ones which are images of animals such as elephants. What has been in front of our eyes all this time, remained obscured, due to erroneous human thinking. What I have found is characters in Brahmi Script and will show and provide the Sanskrit interpretations on not just a single coin but multiple coins in different periods in Ancient Indian history.
