notes upon them : 
“ The collection comprises 126 coins, representing two of the later 
Fathan Sovereigns of Delhi, and four of Bengal. The former include 
Slier Shah and Islam Shah, and the latter Nacrat Shah, Hussain Shah, 
Muhammad Shah, and Sikandar Shah. The bulk of the trove is made up 
of the coins of the two Delhi emperors, and includes several varieties. I
