From J. W. Laidlay, Esq., forwarding a note, with Electrotype im-

The eight gold coins submitted to the inspection of the Society by Mr. 

 D. Cunliffe, are stated by that gentleman to have been found at a village 

 named Kussaraya, in the south-western part of the Monghir district. They 

 belong to what has been termed the Indo-Scythic series. 



No. 1. — The analogues of this coin have been figured by Wilson, plate 

 XIV. figs. 12 and 13, with which the present specimen agrees in rudeness of 

 execution and in its general appearance. The name of the prince is Baraoro, 

 or Varaoro, according to Wilson, but is unfortunately not more distinctly 

 legible on this coin than on those which he figures. 



Obverse: the prince] holding in his left hand a trident, and depositing an 

 offering with his right upon an altar. Legend, POO NONO POO (B O) 

 ONO KOPONO. 



Reverse. — A figure of Shiva and the word OKPO. 



No. 2. — A coin nearly identical with this is figured by Wilson, plate XIV.
