Answer:<\/strong> (A)
\nExplanation: <\/strong>Both Brihat Samhita<\/em> and Mudrarakshasa<\/em> are important literary sources that provide information about the historical existence and socio-cultural status of the Kuluta dynasty.
Brihat Samhita<\/em> is an ancient astrological-geographical text that mentions various regions and kingdoms, while Mudrarakshasa<\/em>, a famous play by Vishakhadatta, portrays ancient Indian political and dynastic affairs. References in these texts confirm the historical presence of the Kulutas.

These coins indicate a stable monetary economy and active trade.
