(6) Some of the more barbarous specimens of the silver coins discovered in Bihar bearing 'very faint recollections of either the Sassanian head or the fire-alter,' marked with the legend *Śrī-Vi*, or *Śrī-Vigraha*, have been assigned by some scholars to this prince. The better specimens are assigned to the two earlier princes of this name. But as the latter appear to have been rather weak rulers with very short reigns, it may be that these coins also should be assigned to the early part of Vigrahapāla III's reign.³
