Comment :
The rebel Magra is unknown apart from his coins. The depiction of a staff topped with a chakra, in the place of usual banner, suggests a link to the Kacha type of the Gupta king Samudragupta, and Magra may have been an ally of the Guptas against the Kushans. Another important noteworthy point in this coin is the staff held by the king on the obverse topped with chakra and a circle on that.
Extremely Rare.
