Ind.\*, i, 238); and (3) at Gwālior, Central India, dated in the fifteenth year of Mihiragula, son of Toramāna (Fleet, No. 37). The silver coins of Toramāna, which imitate the Surāshtran coins of the Western Satraps and Guptas, are dated in the year 52, apparently reckoned from a special Hun era, probably beginning in A. D. 448 (\*J. A. S. B.\*, vol. lxiii, part i (1894), p. 195). - [Previous: c29.165](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.smith-1924.c29.165) - [Next: c29.167](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.smith-1924.c29.167) - [Up: c29](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.smith-1924.c29) ## Cites (1) - [Kura](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.site.kura) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.smith-1924.c29.166](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.smith-1924.c29.166) · Pramāṇa
