c11.s10.1

Among the Gupta kings, only Chandragupta II can perhaps be said to have attempted to start a regular copper currency. Very few copper coins of Rāmagupta and Kumāragupta I are known and none whatever of any other Gupta emperor.¹ Harigupta, who is known from a single copper piece, does not appear to have belonged to the Imperial Gupta family.
