Synopsis
Excerpt from The Coins of Haidar Ali and Tipu Sultan Many features of interest are presented by the coins of the two Muhammadan sovereigns who controlled the destinies of Mysore for the brief period Of thirty-eight years, - Haidar Ali, the illiterate warrior, able in troublous and therefore propitious times to establish a kingdom by his forceful personality and military genius, and Tipu Sultan, the son, who was unable to retain that kingdom. They are memorials Of two remarkable men with whom Britain was frequently at war, issued at a time when the question of European supremacy in India was still in process of determination. But in addition to their historical associations and the light which they throw on the policy and even on the personal characteristics of the two rulers, there are other features which render the coins specially attractive to collectors. Many of them are still met with in considerable numbers, not only in the bazaars of nearly every Mysore Village, but also over a considerable part of Southern India, while others again are of extreme rarity. The well-executed figure of an elephant, introduced by Haidar on some of the copper coins issued towards the close of his reign, and continued by Tim? On all those struck in the same metal, forms a distinctive feature; many Of the gold and silver pieces afford indisputable testimony to the decora tive value of the Arabic script, and it may be doubted if any coin more attractive in this respect than Tipu's double-rupee has ever been struck in India. For all these reasons it is not surprising that an extensive literature has sprung up on the subject, and no series of coins issued in South India and few in other parts of the country have been more Often described or referred to.

I have, however, also taken other sources into account, such as the works of previous writers, the large collections of the British Museum, London, and the Mysore Government Museum at Bangalore, as well as private collections. I regret that the notes which I took on the occasion of my visits to the two institutions just referred to are not as complete as I could have wished, and I have not been able to revisit these collections in recent years. The letter M following the number of a coin indicates that it is represented in the collection of the Madras Museum. In cataloguing the somewhat complicated issues of Tipu Sultan, I am convinced that, if confusion is to be avoided, the only safe course is to arrange the coins according to mints. In leaving the size of the coins to be inferred from the plates, and making comparatively little reference to their weight, I have perhaps laid myself open to adverse criticism; but as most of the coins were roughly struck there are frequent variations in their size, and to some extent also in their weight. I have tried to indicate the chief variations in weight, without giving unnecessary details in regard to individual specimens. In an attempt to indicate the relative scarcity or abundance of the different coins, I have perhaps ventured on an innovation in works of this kind. I have, however, attempted to do so on account of exceptional opportunities for forming such an opinion; during a period of over quarter of a century many thousands of these coins, collected from all parts of Southern India, have passed through my hands.

The seller also messaged me as soon as the purchase went through so communication was great. This was the last book in the series that I needed and to be able to find it in such great condition and at a great cost was unexpected. Highly recommend this seller and will definitely buy from again in the future.MARTIN THE WARRIOR (REDWALL) By Brian Jacques - Hardcover **BRAND NEW** (Nr. 187149385105)

The seller met two out of three categories I look for when judging my purchasing experience: how well it was packaged, how quickly it was shipped, and how properly it was described; this seller provided prompt shipping and an accurate description, but failed when it came to packaging. The item arrived in a plastic bag without any reinforcement or protection whatsoever and suffered dinged corners on multiple fronts.
