 note. 



" My dear Gour, — Sometime ago Mr. Theobald, Junior, left 

 with me 7 silver coins for presentation to the Asiatic Society, if 

 I thought them worthy of its acceptance. I find the first 3 to 

 belong to the Shah Kings of Saurashtra, No. 1 being of Vira Dania 

 son of Dama Shah, No. 2 of Atri Dama son of Eudra Shah, and No. 

 3 of Bisva Shah, son of Bhathri Dama. The Society possesses no 

 specimens of these coins and they will therefore be useful additions 

 to its cabinet. They have been figured in the Journal and in Mr, 

 Thomas's Indian Antiquities, Vol. II. p. 85.
