The correct option is D 1,2 ,3 and 4
Coins show diversity in the variety, shape, size, weight and also in the content they depict. The symbols on coins represent the King in a symbolic form like those of mauryan coins depicting Bindusara or Chandragupta Maurya, they can also contain images of the king or deities along with time period of mininting. Eg Gupta coins show Samudragupta (image of him playing veena), Goddess Lakshmi etc
