to the legend borne on the reverse of the issue of Ibrahim Shah. 
Weights.—The coin appears to have been minted by 
Ibrahim, Muhammad and Husain in one weight only but 
Mahmid would appear to have issued the type in two weights. 
ize is the normal size of issue of coins of this type. 
In order to arrive at the average weights of the billon and 
copper issues of the Sharqi Kings I have weighed the coins 
i 
alogues. The result may be considered as forming a very 
fair basis for calculating the average weights of the coins.! 
The resultant averages of the coins of this size of the 
various kings were as follows :— 
Ibrahim Shah .. 140°1 grs. 
Mahmid Shah .. 145°3 grs. 
Muhammad Shah.. 150 grs. 
Husain Shah vs 1007 oe 
The heaviest weight for a coin of Ibrahim is reached in a 
Specimen in my own collection which weighs 147 grs. The 
coin is however corroded. Four specimens of the total number
