Regarding gold coins time line should also be kept in mind . If the society don't know about lead but they have found gold already so for them lead is more valuable ..... And also the value of coin matters of a ruler has made a special coine only for super rich people like coustom made and that coin is made of lead so for then 10 gold coins doesn't mean anything infront of that one lead coustom coin(can be a possibility 😅)
to be honest for me... your teaching style is soo suitable for me...i have tried Manikant sir ..he is a great teacher but for me your teaching style is more suitable..thanks for your efforts sir

Similarly bilingual coins with portrait of Greek and Indian gods deity represent the view of religion tolerance in bactrian . These information about the incredible history of Indian is derive from the numismatics sources of the history so they are important.
