For more information please view Terms and Conditions for Buyers.。The coins of Yaśo Narayana fall into two main categories: silver Tankas like the present coin, slightly lighter than their Bengal Sultanate counterparts, usually found in Bangladesh, and often showing signs of wear or other treatment; and broad-flan Tankas, and Quarter-Tankas on thin flans, often of debased metal, which are found only in the north Kachar hills. The former were probably used for trading purposes beyond Kachar, while the latter must have been for local use only. The Quarter-Tankas are known from many different dies and hence varieties.
