As for the coins and dates, what reference book did you pull this stuff out from?

From the 1700's Krause catalogue, mostly. The calendars used on Nepali coins are explained in the intro chapter for the country. The trickiest parts about reading dates on Nepali coins are figuring out which squiggles are the numerals, and then interpreting them; their shapes are extremely variable. There's a table of the varied shapes that Nepali numerals can take in the introductory chapter, too.

They also look similar to the designs found for the early Mohars of the 20th-Century found in 1901-200 Standard Catalogue. But there are subtle design differences..
