My Dear Sir
I had hoped to have met you today but as I have not I write to request you will kindly present for me some coins of several of the Early Pathan Emporers of Hindustan to the Museum - as follows
a. 3 coins of Sultan Mahomud Shah Likunder Sani (?)
b. 1 coin of Ghyas-ud-Dun, Bulbus(?)
c. 1 Sultan Kintub ud Dun Mubarik Shah Khilgi A. H. 716
d. 1 Sultan Zughluk Shah A. H. 722
e. 5 Sultan Ghyas ud Dun Zughluk
These coins are highly debased metal. an account. This measure of the later Pathan Monarch is recorded by historians- I will give a memo on the subject.
I hope to add to this trifling donation shortly when my luggage arrives
Yours very truly
W. Nithee
p.s. for some time to come I shall remain at Coddenham
