Note: It is a Plate coin featured inTGE by S. Kumar, on Page 372, Coin No. 0261. Altekar's classification grouped all later Kumaragupta Kings into one, referred to as Kumaragupta II, rather than distinguishing between Kumaragupta II and Kumaragupta III. Skandagupta introduced a new, heavier weight standard based on a coin of 80 rattis. The coins of Kumaragupta II fall within the weight range of 8.93 - 9.40gms, providing a distinct criterion for differentiating between the coins of Kumaragupta I and Kumaragupta II.
