&nbsp;Gupta Dynasty, Kumaragupta I (Mahendraditya) (415-455 AD), Gold Dinar, &quot;Lion-Slayer&quot; Type, Obv:&nbsp;king,&nbsp;nimbate standing facing left, wearing waistcloth with sash flying behind, necklace, armlets and jewelry,&nbsp;legs widespread, holding a bow turning to draw in a &quot;Parthian shot&quot; at a lion which sprawls over backward, circular Brahmi legend &quot;(Kumaragupto jayata) ajita&quot;,&nbsp;Rev:&nbsp;goddess Durga, nimbate seated facing on recumbent lion right, holding a lotus and an uncertain object (Mundamala) and an unusual five-point tamgha (like shivalingam) in the left field, Brahmi legend &quot;Simha-Mahendrah&quot; at right,&nbsp;8.2g, 19.05mm,&nbsp;Unlisted type, (Variant of Altekar. Bayana Hoard # Pl. XXIX. 11-15), about extremely fine,&nbsp;Extremely Rare.

Note: Altekar in his Bayana hoard catalogue has described the object in Durga&#39;s hand as a &#39;Garland&#39; but when he produced his corpus a few years later he&nbsp;offered the suggestion that the object was a Mundamala, popularly known as necklace of skulls worn by Shiva or Kali. So the goddess Durga here could be an avatar&nbsp;of the goddess Kali and such depiction of Mundamala is a possible example of Shivaite depiction on the Gupta coinage.&nbsp;
