56 A. F. It. Hoernle —A New Find of Farly Muhammadan Coins. [No. 1, 
The marginal legend is complete, but in illegible scrawls, exactly re¬ 
sembling those in No. 3 a of Thomas’ Initial Coinage , Pt. II, p. 353. The 
date, to judge from other coins of this type, would be some year between 
614 and 616. No mint place is mentioned. 
No. 2. (Plate I, 2). Silver. Like No. 1 in every respect; but the 
marginal legend is incomplete. 
No 3. (Plate I, 3). Silver. Weight 165 grs. Date 6[26]. Ex¬ 
actly like the coin No. XXVIII, described and figured by Mr. Thomas, in 
his Chronicles of the Pathan Kings of Dehli , p. 46, and noted as “ very 
rare.”

Margin: .1^ 
Nothing of the margin is left in Mr. Thomas’ coin ; the small portion 
(AjU) still visible here clearly belongs to &UL* sittamayat = 600. Mr. 
Thomas gives reasons for his conjecture that the date must be 626 A. IT. 
It may be noted that the four segments, formed by the square within 
the circle, contain, on the obverse, an ornamental scroll, oh the reverse, 
three dots. 
No. 4. (Plate I, 4). Silver. Weight 167^ grs. Date [6]30. Ex¬ 
actly like the coin, No. XXX, described and figured by Mr. Thomas, Chro¬ 
nicles, p. 52. Only one-half of the date is left (30), but it suffices to fix 
the date as 630. The illegible space of the margin is just sufficient to pro¬ 
vide room for the two words v-^o at the beginning and AjUju* at the end. 
The coin, therefore, bears no name of any mint.
