$. 137 : Damasena struck coins in silver as Mahāksatrapa.-( Toid, III; D. R. Bhandarkar, op. cit., 227 ff.).
Viradáman struck silver coins as Ksatrapa.-(G. V. Acharya, op. cit., 96).
S. 153: Mahakşatrapa Damasena struck coins in silver.-( Rapson, ibid, 111). Potin coins, which hear the date 1( 5 )8, also belong to this king.-( Ibid, 114).
Coins were struck by Viradáman as Kşatrapa. Ibid, 117, no. 2; D. R. Bhandarkar, op.cit., 227 ff.).
$. 160: Silver coins were struck by Viradāman as Ksatrapa.-- ( Rapson, ibid, 120 f; D. R. Bhandarkar, op. cit., 227 ff.).
Viradāman was succeeded by his lorother, Ksatrapa Yasodāman, whose coins are dated in year 160.-(Ibid, 126 : D. R. Bhandarkar, op. cit., 227 ff.). The legend on his coins is TT HEA319 9 999 T 1719 311313: 1
In the same year Yasodāman was in turn succeeded by his brother Vijayasena as Kşatrapa. The legend on the coins of the latter runs as follows: 1 HET799 z a 974 418 744 --( Rapson, ibid, 129 ff., D. R. Bhandarkar, op. cit., 227 ff.).
Yasodāman rose to the position of Malākşatrapa in rear 160, as known from Uhe Sarvania hoard.- (D. R. Bhandarkar, op. cit., 227 ff.).
S. 161: Silver coins were struck by king Mahaksatrapa Yasodāman, son of king Mahiksatrapa Dimasena. The legend is राजो महाक्षत्रपस दामसेनस पुत्रत्य गज्ञो H€14749 421121:1
Vijayasena, son of Damasena struck coins as Ksatrapa as well as Mahakşatrapa.-(D. R. Bhandarkar, op. cit., 227 ff.). So he seems to have risen to the higher status of Mabākşatrapa and succeeded Yasodáman during this year,
The date 16(1) read by G. V. Acharya on silver coins struck by Viradāman is (op. cit., 98) unacceptable, as Viradaman was already succeeded by Yasodaman in year 160.
Ś. 162: Silver coins were struck by king lijayasena as Mahākşatrapa. The legend is राजो महाक्षत्र रस दामसेनपुत्रस राजो महाक्षत्रास विजयमेनस ।-(Rapson, ibid, I30 f.; D. R. Bhandarkar, op. cit., 227 ff.).
