188 C. J. Rodgers — Mogul Copper Coins. [No. 2, 
I think (51). The date on (52) makes it an Elicpur coin of Shah 
‘Alam I. 
Plate XVI. opens with a Sholapur fulus of Aurangzeb, which is 
followed by (54) and (55) of the 5th year of Shah ‘Alam I. from the 
same mint. (56) is an Aurangzeb fulus from the Kulburga mint, (57) — 
(61) are our fulus of different styles and weights from the Surat mint 
of Aurangzeb. It will be noticed that (59) comes up to the dam 
standard and (60) is half a dam. The mint of (61) with its rupee 
inscription I have not been able to read, but (62) is from the Bijapur 
mint, (63) is a heavy coin of Muhammad Shah’s from the Elicpur 
mint. It is nearly the weight of a dam, (64) is probably of the 
same king and is from the same mint. 
Plate XVII. deals also with the coins of Aurangzeb. (65) is of the 
Lucknow mint while (66) is from Akbarabad (Agra), (67) and (68) 
are from Surat, (69) is a small gold coin of Aurangzeb which came 
into my hands for a day when I was drawing this plate, (70) to (73) 
are all different varieties from the Lahor mint, (74) and (75) I assign 
to Bairat, (76) is doubtful as to mint, and the mint name on (77) 
I have not yet made out. There is no doubt about the king who struck 
all these coins. The years tell us, and they help us to assign dateless 
coins by showing us the peculiar style of Aurangzeb’s copper coins,— 
the letters are mixed up strangely but only on the copper coins of 
Aurangzeb in this style. 
Plate XVIII. opens with four coins (78)—(81) of Farrukhsivar. 
The mint of (81) may be Surat. They all came to me from my Bom¬ 
bay friends Messrs. Malabarwalla and Kotwal. (82) is an Elicpur coin, 
but I don’t know of what king, (83) is a late modern coin from the 
same mint, (84) is a Bairat coin of Akbar’s but of irregular weight, 
(85) comes from Mailapur, the name of a part of the city of Madras. 
It is of the times of Aurangzeb. It belongs now to the Rev. J. E. 
Tracey, M.A., (86) is a unique coin of Muhammad Shah from the 
Shahjahanabad mint. It is singular that whereas mohurs and rupees 
of this king from this mint are exceedingly common, this is the only 
copper coin of this king I have seen from this mint. From this I infer 
that the copper coinage of the Empire was so abundant there was no 
need for any more to be struck. (87) is a Kabul coin of Muhammad 
Shah : (88) is of the same king but from the Multan mint. The speci¬ 
men I made this drawing from is the most beautiful and perfectly 
finished Mogul copper coin I know. (89) is from the Cuttack mint and 
is of the time of ‘Alamgir Aurangzeb. 
On Plate XIX. (90) is of the Hafizabad mint and is dated the 6th 
year of ‘Alamgir, but which of the ‘Alamglrs I don’t know. Of (91)
