Solution

The correct option is A Archer type
Samudragupta issued Archer type of coin. The obverses of such coins represent the king with a bow and garud-dhvaja. The name of Samudragupta is written under the left hand. On the four sides of the king there is a word written in a circular form. And the word can be mentioned as 'Apratiratho vijtya kshitia sucharitai divam jayati'. On the reverse of the coin goddess Lakshami has been represented seated on the throne and having in her hand the flower of lotus. The right side of this figure the word 'Kratantaparashu' is written.
