³ *Catalogue of Indian coins: Andhras and Kṣatrapas*: Intro. pp. clxxix-x. *Kārṣāpaṇa* appears to have been so called, because in weight it conformed to one *Karṣa*, or 80 *ratis* or 146.4 grains as computed by Cunningham. The *Kahāpaṇas* are also identified with the punch-marked coins found all over India in great abundance: Bhandarkar, *op. cit.*, p. 96. For example see *Buddhist India*, p. 106.
