It is hardly possible that they give the value or weight of the coins, since we find entirely different legends on coins of the same size, weight, and material. Now it will be found on examination that almost all of the sign sequences found on these coins can be paralleled from the seals: indeed in two cases the complete legends are identical: viz. the coin M. 42 and the seal M. 481; the coin M. 54 and the seal I. 15. Similarly the sequences 𐀁𐀂, 𐀁𐀃, 𐀁𐀄, 𐀁𐀅, 𐀆𐀇, 𐀆𐀈, 𐀉𐀊𐀋, 𐀁𐀄, which are found at the end (left) of the copper-coin inscriptions, are likewise found at the end of the seal inscriptions, as a glance at the Tables will show; and the sequences 𐀍, 𐀎𐀏, 𐀐𐀁, 𐀑𐀒𐀐, 𐀐𐀁, 𐀑𐀓, 𐀐𐀎, 𐀔𐀕 which are found at the beginning (right) of the copper-coin inscriptions are likewise found at the beginning of the seal inscriptions.
