<p>[QUOTE="springfld.arsenal, post: 101992, member: 54"]BTW the symbol stamped on the bottom is that of the wheel which appears on the abacus of the Sarnath Lion Capital of Ashoka. The actual wheel this stamp emulates has 24 spokes. The abacus/wheel is described here: <a href="http://www.isamaj.com/indinfo/facts1.htm" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.isamaj.com/indinfo/facts1.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.isamaj.com/indinfo/facts1.htm</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
