who roigned 790 — 791 A. H. Tughlaq I’s title al-Mulatuahkil 'Ali Allah 
may be compared with the title al-Mutawahkil 'All ar-Bahman, which 
was assumed just a century later, by Mubarak Shah (824 — 837 A. H.) 
and afterwards by the Lodi kings (Bahlol, Sikandar and Ibrahim) ; 
see Chronicles, pp. 333, 358, 366, 376 ; and also by Islam Shah, see ante, 
p. 167. 
With regard to the Kumara Gupta gold coins of the ‘ peacock ’ 
type (Mr. Smith’s Coinage, p. 105) it may be worth noting, that on the 
specimens of the variety a there are two peacocks on the obverse, 
whom the king is feeding ; and not only one, as all the descriptions 
which I have hitherto seen would seem to imply. On a specimen in 
my own collection the fore-part of the bodies of both birds is quite 
distinct, and even in the autotype figure, published by Mr. Smith 
(pi. Ill, fig. 1), the head of the second bird is quite distinct, behind 
the front-one. In the specimens of variety /8, however, there appears 
to be only one bird.
