C) A is true, but R is false
D) A is false, but R is true
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
Some of King Agathocles' coins depicted Vasudeva, but not Balamma. These coins had legends in Greek and Brahmi scripts, and showed Vasudeva canying a chakra and a conch, on one side. The other side showed the king's name in Greek, along with a two handed Sankarsana, carrying a club and a plough in his hands. Both these brothers have been shown as warriors, with swords near their belts.
