c7.s1.15

So far we know of eight types of the gold coinage issued by Chandragupta II. Curiously enough, the Standard type, which was most popular with his father, was very scarcely issued by him; so far only one coin of this type has been found. The Archer type, which was rather rare with Samudragupta, becomes most common with Chandragupta II.
