The silver punch-marked coins, issued by various janapadas during the times of Lord Buddha and Lord Mahavira are India's earliest coins ever. The term 'janapada' refers to ancient Indian kingdoms that existed between the sixth and third centuries BC. Although the names of one hundred and seventy five janapadas are listed in 'Bhuvankosha' chapters of the Puranas, ancient Buddhist texts like Anguttara Nikaya make frequent references to sixteen great kingdoms and republics (Solas Mahajanapadas) which had evolved and flourished in a belt stretching from Gandhara in the northwest to Anga in the eastern part of the Indian subcontinent and included parts of the trans-Vindhyan region; prior to the rise of Jainism and Buddhism in India. These Janapadas, rose to prominence in around 600 BC and except for Magadha, which subdued them all, retained their independence for very brief periods only. Most of the janapadas never issued coins. Only a handful of janapadas, major ones listed in Anguttara Nikaya (as sodasa mahajanapadas or 16 great kingdoms) of the times of Buddha (Jain literature also lists

Mahajanpadas with little change of names and some references in the Puranas also); were prominent enough to have issued punchmarked coins, also known as local type PMCs, because their find-spots are generally restricted to the geographical area of the respective janapada and also due to which factor, most of this series is extremely rare. This is a collection of historical importance, a great opportunity to acquire the complete set of all the 16 mahajanpadas (as listed in Anguttara Nikaya) as a single lot. First ever appeared on a sale. Exceedingly rare.

Pridmore in 'The Coins of the British Commonwealth of Nations. Part 4, Volume 1'. Has illustrated the larger token (No. 339. Page 179). He has, however, not elaborated the token but has made reference that in the Malabar Coast quote:-“Factories were on the western coast in the 17th century but the supply of specially minted or individually marked coins for local use,” unquote. (page 139). The two tokens (the larger one meant for supervisors or maistries and the smaller one for workers) were issued at the end of the shift to the concerned and represent a day's wage. They could be redeemed for currency at any time. However, due to shortage of coinage, they were freely used as 'currency' in the local bazaars as the merchants accepted them since they knew the wage rates. It was more often that the merchants redeemed them with the company than the workers. These tokens were in use during the early part of 1900s. These tokens are very rare to find. The fact that Pridmore has catalogued them make them unique.
