certainly Philasinasa on the Kharosthi side, it is not (t>IA°E 

 ENoY on the Greek side. In support of the possibility of 

 its being some other name, perhaps new, I may instance the 

 copper coin exhibiting the joint names of Lysias and Antialkidas 

 Br. Mus. Cat., PL XXXI, 2. But the probabilities are that 

 an ignorant engraver blundered the name 0| /\o£ ENoY- Still 

 the coin is a new and interesting one.

 known. Yet they are mentioned by Cunningham in his * Coins 

 of Alexander's Successors': see coins of Hippostratos the

 bow. Greek legend worn and illegible.

 maharajasa, top apadihatasa 9 left probably Artemi .... 



This small coin is a novelty. In weight and size it cor-
