This is a new type of double stater of Wema Kadphi- 

 ses, and is a superb specimen. The obverse resembles that of 

 the coin B. M. Cat., PI. XXV, 10, while the reverse is the same 

 that of the double staters in the British Museum, except 

 that Siva is facing right instead of left. The coin has been 

 purchased for the Indian Museum.

20. Huvishka. 



Copper, round. Weight, 240. Size 1. 



Obverse. — King seated to front cross-legged on clouds, 

 head r. ; 1. hand raised. Greek legend illegible. 



Reverse. — Wind-god running 1. , his hair loose; both arms 

 raised; tor. oAAO. 



The presentment of Oado, the wind-god, is common on the 

 copper coins of Kanishka, but very rare on those of Huvishka.. 

 In his ' Coins of the Indo-Scythians, Sakas and Kushans ' Cun- 

 ningham published copper Oada coins of Huvishka, but with 

 the elephant-rider obverse only, and remarked ' Very rare ; only 

 two specimens.' The coin now described is No. 444 of the first 

 part of the White King Catalogue, but has not been previously 



figured.

83. Some Rare Coins of the Path an Sultans of Dehli. 



The following seven coins of the Dehli Sultans are, to the 

 best of my knowledge, so far unpublished, with the exception 

 of that of Shamsu-d-Din Mahraud Sh&h, but this does not 

 appear to have been adequately described. All but the gold 

 coin were found by me in the Dehli bazar within the last two 

 years. The gold coin came from Rawalpindi.
