Dr, Codrington's coin seems to 

 have no room for such a title, and the specimen now described 

 has even less, though it is not so valuable for thi's purpose 

 as the other is. I have some doubt whether the last line of 



the reverse should read ^*4ii\ tr~*Jf c^ or fjl^M^i] ^^^aJf^l 



Dr. Codrington's remark that this type is common is hardly 

 borne out by the Betul find, which had only one specimen. 



(6), In describing another type of the copper coinage 

 of Abmad Shah I (O.C. No. 1, p. 267; B.M.C. No. 454), 



Dr. Codrington refers to two doubtful matters. His reading 

 of the third line of the obverse as tyUsJj «J11J| is confirmed 

 hj some of the specimens now found. The words on the top 

 of the reverse are also now read with certainty as cj^^ij, the 

 coin being held upside down for this purpose. To the dates 

 read hy Dr. Codrington (886—8) may be added 832. I also 

 read 827 on one coin of this type, but the mint is not legible.

(a) A single coin like O.C. ^No. 2, p. 268 (B.M.C. 

 Ko. 461 ) confirms the reading of Jliit^ for tlie top line of the 

 obverse, but is not absolutely free from doubt. 



(6) To the dates given by Dr. Codvington for B.M.C. 



^o. 462 (0.0. 1^0. 4, p. 268j may be added 842, 845, 848, 

 850, 852—3, 859 and 860. 



(c) Neither by Dr. Codrington (O.C. No. 3, No. 268), 

 nor in the B.M.C. is it noted that No. 467 in the Litter 

 has a mnrginal inscriptiou on the obverse. This is not complete 

 on any one of the 76 coins of this type now found, but it 



certainly includes ^bj ^^:suq ci#^3u w^. Two words remain. 



the first of wliich is probably ai-axA^ the second being quite 

 uncertain. New dates for this type are 850—2, 856 and 860,

(a) Dr. Codrington describes a new type of Humayun's 

 coins in No. 2, p. 2«i9. He has not been able to complete the 

 reading' of the obverse, and describes the reveise as himilar to 

 that on B.M.C. IS^o. 472. Ten coins in the Betul find give 

 the following reading :
