The most important of these is a gold coin of Anrangzeb of 

 the Zafarabad mint, which appears to be unpublished. The 

 copper coins of the last Qutb Shahi ruler, though said to be 

 common, have not been fully described. 



The post of N'umismatic Secretary was held, for the first two 

 months of the year, by Mr. Nelson Wright, and, for the remainder, 

 by Mr. R. Burn. The number of coins examined as Treasure 

 Trove was 8,060, and with the exception of a few cases, which had 

 not been disposed of before the appointment of a special Numis- 

 matic Secretary, this branch of the Society's work is now up to 

 date. Notes have been kept of the more important finds, and 

 will be published in the Numismatic Supplement to the Journal.

 regarded by European scholars as second only in antiquity to the 

 Kigveda. AU that could be possibly done with limited means has
