 The Ikkeri or Keladi Nayakas who are a very well known dynasty issued a number of coins which are mostly of gold or copper. The designs and figures on the Nayak coins are similar to that of the Vijayanagara coins. Even the size and weight of the Nayaka coins are almost identical to the Vijayanagara coins. Some of the most beautiful Nayak coins have been issued by Sadasiva of Keladi. One of his gold coins depicts Lord Siva and Goddess Parvati seated next to each other. Another gold coin of the same ruler features the mythical bird, Gandaberunda. This coin is almost identical to the Gandaberunda coins minted by the Vijayanagara ruler, Achyuta Raya.
