Book excerpt: Excerpt from Catalogue of Coins in the Punjab Museum, Lahore, Vol. 1: Indo-Greek Coins The coins in the Lahore Museum were contained in two separate Collections. One was the Government Collection proper, and the other was the Cabinet of Mr. C. J. Rodgers, a well-known figure in Indian numismatics, a Collection which was purchased by the Panjab Government. Mr. Rodgers prepared Catalogues under official auspices, both of the Government Collection and of his own Cabinet; and these were printed at the Baptist Mission Press, Calcutta, in the years 1892 to 1894. Neither work was illustrated, a fact which has detracted much from their value. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
