The legend on the coins is T4 999 TETT $1 21121: - Rap:on, op cit, 175; D.R. Bhandarkar, ibid ). From Dasakumiracarita we learn that in the historical age, Valabhi was the capital of Suraştra, and prior to it, Girinagara was so. It was destroyed in Vira Samvat 845 i.e. V. S. 375. (= 319 A.D.). This is according to Titthogatiś : Prabhandha Cintamani' (1), Purātana-prabandha-sangraha (XXXVII, p. 83) etc. A similar event took place in V. S. 845, (= 789 A.D.)and this gave a fatal blow to this city, from which it could not regain its original prosperity.(JPI, Pt. I, P. 399). The epoch of the Gupta Era is 318-19 A.D., and its first year was 319-20 A.D. It probably dates from the coronation of Candragupta I, Vikramaditya, son and successor of Ghatotkaca, who had married a Licchavi princess of Pataliputia. This Candragupta, chief of a small principality near Pataliputra, and first of the Gupta dynasty, became independent; and founded the Gupta Era' beginning at 320 A.D. The Valabhi Era, it appears, was adopted by the Maitrakas, who were the feudatories of the Guptas. The latter introduced the Era of the Guptas' in Surāştra. Their subjects, however, consequently gave it the name of their masters, and referred to it as the Valabhi era'. S. 242-Coins of silver were struck by Kșatrapa Yagoda man II.--( Rapson, op. cit., 177; D. R. Bhandarkar, ibid).
