C. J. Rodgers— On some more Copper Coins of Ahbar. [No. 1, 
kindly pointed out to me, shonld be tanlcah. I quite agree with this 
correction and am very thankful to the General for the kind manner in 
which he brought it to my notice. One other reading was also cor¬ 
rected. Here my coin was in fault. I read it Zarb-i-Illahabas. On 
the plainest coins it is certainly Muhr-i-Illahdbds. It is seldom per¬ 
haps so many mistakes are made in one paper. I can only plead the 
fact that I was busy in making preparations for my furlough and that 
I had not time to consult my more learned and experienced fellow- 
numismatists. None, however, of my critics give me credit for introduc¬ 
ing to notice so many novelties. A careless perusal of my short paper 
will show that I proved the fulus to be a coin of uncertain weight, that 
I gave a yah tdnhe , a do tdnhe , a damrd , a damn and several tanhahs 
besides the coins of several mints up to that time unpublished and of 
several up to that time unknown. This I mention to show that my 
paper was not without some value in spite of its faults. Since 1881, I 
have kept up my researches and am able now to give a new series of 
coins which I shall leave to speak for themselves. 
The coins I have drawn are all of pure copper. Some are very 
thick as will be seen from the plate where the two lines under the coins 
indicate their thickness. The weight of each is given under it in grains. 
They are as follows (see Plate I) :—

Of these coins Nos. 1, 2, 12 are the property of my venerable and 
kind friend General Cunningham, No. 11 is from an impression by the 
same gentleman at Lucknow in 1840, and given to me some years back.
