I recently acquired an example of this Nepalese 1 rupee which is listed as a standard circulation coin but has "Prooflike" in the comments for all three dates. The coin I have, dated 2048 (1991), is nice but I wouldn't call it "prooflike" and the prices suggest this is indeed a standard circulation coin. Can anyone shed any light on this apparent contradiction? If no one has any ideas, I'll request that the three comments should be changed.

I assumed that's where it must have come from but, as my rather old copy doesn't show this, I wasn't sure. Is it credible, given the prices?
