Indo-Greek coins
Indo-Greek coins are ancient currency issued by Greek rulers who settled in India around 200 BCE to 10 CE. These coins blend Greek artistic styles with local symbols, often featuring images of rulers, deities, and inscriptions in Greek and local scripts. They served as a means of trade and cultural exchange, showcasing the fusion of Greek and Indian traditions. The coins are valuable for understanding the history of Indo-Greek kingdoms, their governance, and their interactions with Indian civilizations, reflecting a unique period of multicultural influence in ancient South Asia.
