Hmmm, I did not change the attributions of these coins to Srivijaya. I would also say that attributing it to Sailendra is too specific and speculative. There are several dynasties in ancient Java and who minted what is incredibly unclear. Same goes to Srivijaya and Sumatra. We can perhaps only attribute it either pre-islamic Java and pre-islamic Sumatra (without attributing it to any states) based on their distribution.

 

In short, I would empty the Srivijaya category of these coins probably. 

@by.abay thank you
