The recovered coins, nearly 200 in number, include six silver punch-marked \[3.1\], one of the Indo-Greek Antimachos Nikephoros and a few of the Kushans, Yaudheyas and late Indo-Sassanians. Gold is represented by a thin bead, perhaps an amulet, a leaf with a winged lion head in repouseé and a heart-shaped thin piece. The copper objects include a bell \[6.3\], small jars, a circular disc finger rings and ear rings, a long nail-extractor and an awl. Of the iron objects large hatchets, a cobbler's scraper, the mouth-piece of a bellow, double-edged daggers, sickles, chisels, crucibles \[16.4\]—all from a blacksmith's workshop—door accessories, ladles, hanging lamps \[6.11\] and a limited number of barbed arrowheads and spearheads deserve mention. Dicing was a favourite amusement: two cubical dice \[6.7.1\] of terracotta are marked with shallow holes one to six in number in a way that the sum of the holes on each pair of opposite sides total seven; others are however marked differently. The marks on ivory dice are concentric circles. - [Previous: v2.c45.115](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c45.115) - [Next: v2.c45.117](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c45.117) - [Up: v2.c45](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c45) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c45.116](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c45.116) · Pramāṇa
