434 Journal of the Asiatic Society of Bengal. [December, 1912. 
SALIMABAD AsmER.—Mr. R. Burn, C.S., read the mint on 
a copper coin of Akbar dated 982 A.H., from the Ellis Collec- 
tion, now in the Lucknow Museum, as Salimgarh Ajmer. But 
rom a specimen discovered more recently I read the name as 
Salimaibad Ajmer, and this reading is supported by the exis- 
tence of a iater coin struck at Salimabad alone—see Paper 80, 
N.S. XIII. I find that the two Salimabad Ajmer coins are 
identical, Mr. Nelson Wright has a third, and Mr. Bleazby had 
a fourth. The reading Salimabad is, I think, to be preferred 
to Salimgarh. 
ArKAT.—Arkat rupees of Jahaindar Shah (Paper 84, N.S. 
XIV), and of Shah ‘Alam Bahadur I (Paper 69, N.S. XI), have 
already been published. The dates of the latter coin are 1122 
-H., 4 R., but an even earlier rupee (1120 A.H., 2 R.) was in 
the Collection of Mr. Eugene Leggett, Karachi. 
SLAM Banpar.—A rupee of Aurangzeb of the usual 
couplet type struck at Islam Bandar has been for some time 
in the Cabinet of Dr. G. P. Taylor at Ahmadabad. A probable 
duplicate belongs to Mr. Nelson Wright. Dr. Taylor has shown 
that Islam Bandar was the name given to Rajapur ( )52 4) ), 
a tidal port on the Konkan Coast, thirty miles south-east of. 
Ratnagiri town. 
AKBARABAD.—In a paper entitled ‘Rare Mughal Coins’ 
(J.A.S.B., 1896), Mr. C. J. Rodgers described and illustrated a 
Shah Jahan II. But I find that the reverse (the mint side) 
is very similar to that of the copper Akbarabad coin o 
Farrukhsiyar published by me in N.S. XV. I have therefore 
shown this coin in the new Tables as belonging to Shah Jahan 
II, and as such, it is the first copper coin to be attributed to 
this emperor. A second is one of Stirat mint—see below. 
Banpu0.—I had a thick, dumpy rupee of Akbar without 
hati which bore a new couplet. The legends probably ran 
u 
Obverse. Reverse.
