68 0. J. Rodgers —Supplement to Thomas' Chronicles , No. 5. [No. 2, 
This unique coin, which is now in the British Museum, was obtained 
by me at Sonpat, near Dehll, in my third archseological tour together with 
a hemi-drachma of Agathokleia. It was struck in Bengal. It has on 
it the name of Tughlaq Shah I of Dchli, and of the Nasiru-d-din whom he 
conquered in Bengal. From this coin we learn that his name was 
Ibrahim Shah. This is not recorded in any history to which I have had 
access. Unfortunately neither side has room for a margin.

I have not met with any other coin of this type. It seems to reveal 
to us the fact that Ghivas Shah IOiilji struck coins in the reign of his 
father. 866 is 14 years before the time of liis father’s death and his 
own accession. The use of the term WalVahd , or heir, is common on 
such occasions.

This beautiful silver anna of Nasiru-d-din Mahmud is the second 
one I have discovered. I have one in my fourth Supplement. I gave a 
silver anna of Ghiyasu-d-din Balban in the third Supplement. I believe 
these three are the only ones known.

This mohur seems to have been struck from odd dies. The obverse 
is the same as the reverse of the mohur No. 328 of the B. M. Catalogue, 
and the reverse is the same as the obverse of No. 276 of the same 
catalogue.

This unique rupee is in the cabinet of General M. Gossett, c.b. 
It has two peculiarities. On the obverse instead of is 
only. On the reverse the Khalifah’s name iswho was Khalifah 
from Ramzan 622 to Rajab 623 H. As in the margin we have the 
unit figure we may conclude that this coin was struck in 623II. 
This is the only known coin on which the name of the Khalifah is found.
