allranger Pillar of the Community United States 1391 Posts	Posted 02/10/2013 6:58 pm I pulled some different looking coins out of the dealers junk box. At first I thought they were going to be from Nepal because of the Trident. Apparently they are from Kutch and they just use the Nepalese calendar. At first I thought it was this coin, but the letters are very different. It doesn't match the coin in the World Coins Catalog either. Can anybody explain?

wheatiefan Pillar of the Community United States 507 Posts	Posted 02/11/2013 12:32 am I haven't checked every little character, but it matches the description in my book of: Y#80 Adhio (1/2 Kori) 1943 - 1946 (VS1999-2002) I think yours has the date 1943 on the lower left reverse and 1999 on the lower right obverse.

What had me confused is that the year (1999) was in a different script than what I could find listed in date convertors. Once you got me on the right track I was able to find information about the different types of scripts used to represent the Nepalese calendar. Thank you! Report this Post to the Staff
