The Coinage of the Gupta Empire and its Imitations c6.26

c6.26

Kumāragupta was succeeded by his son Skandagupta. There is some evidence to suggest that Skandagupta’s succession may have been disputed by his brother (or half-brother) Purugupta. On the whole, however, it appears more probable that Purugupta succeeded Skandagupta after his death and did not oppose his accession.
