Thank you very much in advance for your help!

Have a nice day

thank you very much for your help parimal! do you have any idea for the date?
i can see it on the first picture but i can't read it
I can read the last two digits 73 of the date. Considering the reign of Firuz shah Tughluq the date will be 773AH or 1372AD

thank you very much parimal! :`

maybe do you have an idea for the first one?
I have not been able to identify the first one. As per my knowledge the legend above the bull reads "sri ha vi ma". But I am not sure if I am making any mistakes in reading or not, as I cannot match it to any particular ruler that I know of. I think its probably from Rajputs of Ajmer or early rulers of Delhi Sultanate

I did run through Tye's Jital book to look for anything similar, but couldn't find any. Perhaps the legend is mis-spelled version of "Sri Hamira" but i am not sure.
