¹ Tufnell, *Hints to Coin Collectors in Southern India*, pp. 11-12. The most interesting of the Pāndya coins known so far have been described in this publication and Elliot, as also in the papers of Sir T. Desikachari in the *Tamilian Antiquary* and that of Hultzsch in *I. A.*, vol. xxi, pp. 323-6. The Roman coins are discussed by Sewell in the *J.R.A.S.*, 1904. It may be noted that Sir T. Desikachari mentions that gold coins with the fish design were found in South Canara; cf., in this connection, the observations of Prof. D. R. Bhandarkar, *Asoka*, p. 40.
