Obv. margin is illegible. 
Note : There is one specimen of typo I, of excessively rude exe- 
cution, the scrawls on which have a faint resemblance to the usual 
area legends of Shor Shah’s coins. It is either a crude imitation or a 
forgery ; and not worth publishing. 
Type II. Lettered surfaces on obverse and reverse. 
Variety 1, legends exactly as on No. 355 in Thomas’ Chronicles, that 
is to say, with Sultan only (not as-Sultdn) on the reverse. There are four 
subvarieties, differing only in the arrangement of the words of the 
obverse legend. All have the date on the obverse. 
Subvariety a, with 68 specimens, some of which show on the rev. 
an asterisk or quatre-foil (as a mint mark), but most are plain. 
See Plate III, fig, 13.
