wayforwarded New Member 47 Posts	Posted 08/14/2012 2:16 pm Oddly every search I do on this coin comes up showing 1982, but if you read the arabic numerals on the actual coin it says 1983... Report this Post to the Staff
Bacchus2 Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2885 Posts	Posted 08/14/2012 2:22 pm The AH and the AD years do not quite match up. An AH year can sometimes refer to a different AD year than might be expected.

You're welcome Quote: Oddly every search I do on this coin comes up showing 1982, but if you read the arabic numerals on the actual coin it says 1983... Well catalog also says its 1982(AH 1402)... I thought it might be error in catalog. Quote: The AH and the AD years do not quite match up. An AH year can sometimes refer to a different AD year than might be expected. Thats true because Islamic calendar is lunar and has 354/355 days.
