KumaraGupta I well done Chris. These silver drachms barrow the style from the earlier coins of the Western Satraps (Sakas) who inherited their style from the Kushans, who got it from the Greeks, who "coined" the idea of putting a bust and text in a coin, all those centuries earlier. India, The Gupta Empire KumaraGupta I Uncertain mint 414-455AD AR Drachm Obv: Bust of KumaraGupta I right Rev. Bhrami script - "royal titles" Winged Garuda center.  |
