Nos. 100, 101. Silver. Coins of Euthydemus of all the well known

Here ends the list of all different varieties of coins that have come 
under my notice. Some of them are unique, and several are very rare, 
while many others are very common. The coins that I have seen amount 
to 64 gold and 459 silver, or altogether 523 specimens. But at least as 
many more must have been sold to Officers with the Army in Afghanistan, 
so that the whole number found cannot have been less than 150 gold and 
1000 or 1200 silver coins, mostly tetradrachms. The value of the coins 
alone would therefore have been about one talent or upwards, or 300£ 
sterling.
