Newell records a mixed hoard reported from the vicinity of Mandali, bringing together Parthian, Seleucid, Cappadocian, Bactrian, and Alexander-type coins. His account distinguishes the dealer’s find report from the specimens he could trace and catalogue. It provides evidence for circulation and attribution, with the uncertainties of a dispersed market find made explicit.
