Satvahanas, Junnar region, Vasithiputa Siri Pulumavi (c.85-125AD), Fractional Alloyed Copper, 0.94g, “Lion” type, Obv: Characteristic maned Lion standing facing left, a three-arched hill below its belly with dots in arches and a standard in a railing in front (partly visible), Brahmi legend “…Siri Pulumavi…” above, Rev: Ujjain symbol with three dots in each quadrant, partly visible. Extremely fine, very rare. Coins of Pulumavi are the last in the ‘Junnar lion’ series and are known only as small fractional issues. As the universal Satvahanas currency with potin ‘elephant’ and silver ‘portrait’ type coins got underway, the regional nature of Satvahanas coins gradually came to an end. Also, Kshatrapas from Gujarat made a resurgence in mid-2nd century AD, defeating Vasithiputa Siri Satakani and annexing large parts of Satavahana territory in Maharashtra to their realm. As a result, the Satvahanas focus gradually shifted to Andhra where the dynasty flourished for another hundred or so years.
