fig. 14. The execution, though barbarous, is superior to the foregoing, so 

 much so as to render it doubtful whether it should be attributed to the same 

 prince. 



Obverse.— PAO NANO PAO * * OANO KOPANO. 



Reverse.— OKPO. 



No. 3. — Apparently unpublished. 



Obverse. — Bust of the prince, with legend only partially legible — NO 

 KOPANO. 



Reverse. — Standing figure with crescent-shaped wings ; legend MAO. 



No. 4. — A very rude coin of similar type to No. 1, but legend illegible, 

 except on the reverse OKPO. 



Nos. 5 and 6. — Coins of the same prince. Obverse. — Bust of the monarch. 

 Legend PAO NANO PAO OOHPKO KO PANO. Reverse.— Figure in a long 

 robe holding a cornucopia. Legend APAOXPO. 



No. 7. — Of the same prince apparently, having the same inscription on the 

 obverse as the foregoing, but instead of a female figure with a cornucopia on 

 the reverse, there is a soldier with a spear in his left hand and what seems 

 a parasol in his right. 



No. 8. — Analogues of this coin published by Wilson, pi. XIV. figs. 19, 20. 

 21, 22. 



Mr. Cunliffe states that these coins form a portion of 84 found in the bed 

 of the river ; and that as the claimants are unable to prove their right to 

 them, the whole will most probably revert to Government, from whom he 

 suggests they might be obtained by the Society upon application, for the 

 museum. If to be had on such easy terms I need not say that their acquisi- 

 tion would be most desirable ; but lest it be otherwise, I have made electro- 

 type facsimiles of them for deposit in the museum ; and take the present 

 occasion to observe that if numismatologists would furnish us with accurate 

 impressions of such novelties as they may discover, we should soon be able 

 to get up a cabinet of facsimiles scarcely inferior in authenticity and historical 

 value to the originals.
