World, India, Western Gangas, gold pagoda c. 1080-1138 AD, elephant/floral scroll. 13 mm, 3.98 g.
The low weight standard indicates this is a later issue; there is epigraphic evidence that the coinage was continued well beyond the usually assigned end date of 1138 AD, perhaps as late as the 15th century AD. See Sircar, Studes in Indian Coins (2005), Ch. XIV.
EF, residual lustre, from slightly worn dies. A nice example of this popular issue.
