Solaha (सोलह) is the Hindi spelling for Ṣoḍaśa (“sixteen degree (gold)�), as mentioned in the �A Cultural note on the Kuvalayamala of Uddyotanasuri� by the late Dr. V. s. Agrawala.�(Cf. ܱṇṇ) In the pre-Muslim period, the highest purity was of sixteen degree, and such gold was called ṣoḍaś-ṇa첹 (Kāvyamīmāṃsā of Rājaśekhara, Saka 1900, chapter 17) which must have been the Ჹ-ܱṇṇ of Uddyotanasūri. We also find reference to ṣoḍaś-ṇa gold in the Mānasollāsa from which was derived the Hindi word DZ-ī which in Rajasthani became solamo-sono referred to as solen in the Jñāneśvarī (1290 A.D.).�(Cf. The highest purity of gold in India, The Journal of the Numesmatic Society of India, Vol. 16, pp. 270-74). This seems same as the śṛṅī-첹Բ첹 mentioned in the Kādambarī.
