576 DESCRIPTION OF SELECT COINS. 



No. 24. — A Drawing in the Society's Collection, from a Copper Coin 

 in the Cabinet of the late Mr. Seymour. 



Obverse. — As before, but the impression is more dis- 

 tinct : the head-dress is a sort of crown, and the hand holds 

 a sceptre : there is an appearance of characters round the 

 margin, but they are probably only parts of an ornamental 

 border : behind the head is the symbol or symbol noticed on 

 so many of the foregoing specimens. 



Reverse. — The mounted figure as before: the symbol 

 is repeated : there is a circular legend, but the characters are 

 imperfect : they have some appearance of Greek very rudely 

 cut. The words BA2IAET2 BA2IAEHN may be conjectur- 

 ed as part of the inscription. 



No. 25. — A Copper Coin in the Society's possession, procured by 

 Lieutenant Burnes, in the vicinity of Mdnikydla, 



Obverse. — A head with rays, but apparently no cap or 

 crown : in other respects, as the position of the hand and 

 sceptre, and in the symbol, it resembles the two preceding 

 Coins. 



Reverse. — The mounted figure as in the two last, but of 

 very superior execution : the hand appears to hold something, 

 perhaps a hawk: the same symbol is repeated, and there is a 

 legend round the margin &£$&[% Y P> £#M V C\ A & V tJm, 

 which may be conjectured to be intended for BA2IAEY2 

 BASIAEflN, as in No. 24, but several of the characters are 

 more distinct, and are undoubtedly Greek.
