Of the coins of the fourth variety, any tiling of the legend is only 
visible on No. 2, where the following fragment can be read : 
maharaja xxxx xxxxx 
The longer legend is found on the coins of the third variety. On 
these the letters are written in long, narrow shapes, closely crowded 
together ; and calculating from what of the legend is preserved, it may be 
seen that the face of the coin affords room for 20 letters. On the coins 
of the second variety, the letters are formed large and square, taking 
up much more space, so that the surface of the coin, to judge from what 
remains of the legend, cannot have admitted more than 13 letters. 
The same is the case with the coius of the first variety, where the 
letters are formed small and square, but are set wider apart from one 
another than on the coins of the third variety. On the two coins of 
the latter variety, the legend reads as follows : 
No. lxxxxx xxxxxx xx ta(sa) Gugra(da)max 
No. 2 maharajasa ra(jati) x ( jasa ) (raa) x x (sa) Gugramadasa . 
(PI. I, 16). 
The same long legend, as already observed, occurs on the large 
coins, with a slightly different form of the name, viz., Gugramayasa. 
It reads as follows :— 
(PI. T, 6). 
No. 1, ( ma)harajasa ( ra) xxxxx xxxx ( Gugramayasa ) 
No. 3, ( mahara ) XX XXXXXX xxxx (Gu)grax Xsa. 
The bracketed letters are distinguishable ; l the others are perfectly 
clear. The whole of the visible letters (eleven) occupy slightly more 
than one-half of the circle; hence the total inscription must have 
comprised about 20 letters. 
Accordingly the complete legends, probably, stood as follows : 
(1) longer legend: Maharajasa Rajatirajasa Mahatasa Gugramayasa 
(or Gugramadasa or Gugradamasa ), 
(2) shorter legend: Maharaj-uthabiraja-Gugramadasa (or Gugrad- 
masa or Gugraviodasa or Gugratidasa) . With variants yuthabi and 
juthubi. 
1 Some of these bracketed letters do not show sufficiently on the photographs 
though they are quite distinguishable on the original coin.
