1835.] Continuation of notes on Hnidu Coins. 681 



Shdh, 1239, or Kai Robad, 1286 ?) the only two emperors which hore 

 the appellation of Moaz ul-din. 



From the last coin, the passage is easy to those of purely Muham- 

 medan aspect, such as are described in Marsden's Numismata, vol. 

 ii. ; but this author does not appear to have had an opportunity of 

 examining- an intermediate group of coins, on which, in deference to 

 the conquered people, a Nagari inscription was retained on the margin. 



They are by no means uncommon ; yet it is rare to find the marginal 

 legend perfect. Marsden's DCCXIII., of Toghluk Shdh, is of this 

 species ; but in it the Nagari falls beyond the limits of the disc. 



I have therefore thought that a few examples of this group might 

 form a proper appendage to the present series, and have accordingly 

 introduced three varieties from Colonel Stacy's and my own collec- 

 tions, to fill up the plate. 



Fig. 51, the earliest in date, must be read from the reverse 



itT^i [*A^J ^^' ^^ r^' uAkl^il ui sultan ul dazem Ghids ul 

 dunya va ul-din, (and in the centre of the obverse,) Balban ; the latter 

 is encircled by a Nagari sentence, of which *sf\ ^^TflW. . is visible. 



Figs. 54, 55, and 56, are coins of the celebrated Alauddin*, the 

 disposition of the titles and name as before *l* t*-»s-"° ^jj tVil^ UijJl 

 Itr yjlb.uJl Ul Sultan Ala ul dunya va ul-din Muhammed Shdh. On the 

 margin, ^t ^*n •TSTT ^ • ^ Sri Sultan Shdh, (A. H.) 706. 



Figs. 52 and 53, close our present series ; they bear the titular 

 designations of Toghlak Sh'ah, *^* ($*■> (*^**[) ^ t^'^UiJac 5! 

 ^UaLJl Ul Sultdn ul dazem Ghids ul dunya va ul-din, Toghlak Shdh. 

 The Nagari of the margin is similar to the last, but imperfect, as if 

 cut by one ignorant of the language. 



After the complete and satisfactory evidence we have just examin- 

 ed, little need be said as to the epoch to which at least the mixed or 

 Hindu-Muhammedan portion of the bull and horseman group belongs : 

 for, from the names inscribed in Nagari or Arabic, or from the titles 

 or cognomina, which are in fact as frequently the names bv which the 

 Musalman sovereigns are known, we can nearly fill up the first cen- 

 tury of the Patau monarchs of Delhi, thus : 



Sri Muhammed Same is, I presume, Mohammed bin Sa'mul Ghori, 

 the first of the dynasty, commonly known by his cognomen Shahdb- 

 ul-din, who possessed himself of the throne of Delhi, A. H. 588, 

 A. D. 1192. 



Shamsh ul-din, in Nagari and Arabic, is Altamsh, A. H. 607 A. D. 1210 

 Moaz ul-din, must be Bairam Sha'h, his son, 637 1239 



* At the time of engraving the plate, I mistook the Muhammed Sha'h for 

 the son of Toghlak : the date corrects m«.
