Solution

The correct options are
A Nishka
B Satamana
C Krishmana
One of the important developments of the later Vedic phase was the use of regular coins as the medium of exchange. Around the sixth century BCE, use of coins like ‘Nishka’, ’Satamana’, and ‘Krishmana’ became common. Paise as a currency was not available at that time.
