Question

Nashik’s “counter” versions of these objects with a “three-arched hill” suggest Sātavāhana conflict with the Kshatrapa (“SHAH-trop”) Nahapāna. “Tribal” types of the objects with a nandipada attest to republican gaṇas like the Yaudheyas. The Kushans adopted styles of these objects from Ai-Khanoum’s Yona kings, like Agathocles, (10[1])who used them to promote the cults of Balarāma and Vāsudeva and (10[1])trace his “pedigree.” (10[1])Eucratides (10[1])I made a giant version (10[1])of these objects after the Diodotids retook their production from the (10[1])Euthydemids in Bactria. These objects date the Yavana era. (-5[1])India’s “punch-marked” types of these objects (10[1])were replaced by versions of Hellenistic (10[2])philíppeioi, (10[2])which supplanted Achaemenid ones like darics (10[2])and (10[1])sigloi and (10[1])matched the Euboic standard of Attic talents. (10[1])For (10[1])10 points, Alyattes of Lydia made electrum (10[1])into what objects (10[1])that include the stater (10[1])and drachma? ■END■ (10[1])

ANSWER: coins [or coinage; accept medals, medallions, médailles, or croesids, accept drachmas or tetrádrachmon until “drachma” is read; accept talents or stater until each is read; prompt on money, currency, cash, or equivalents; prompt on weights, precious metals, silver, Ag, gold, Au, copper, Cu, or electrum by asking “made into what objects?”] (The first line refers to counterstruck coins.)
