Wrong calendar in Indian states coins

7 posts
Hi there..
The Calendar in the Indian princely states coils is Wrong .for example
https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces13987.html​ It is given Calendar Nepal - Vikram SamvatThis is Wrong, Vikram Samvat is not a Nepali calender, as Hinduism was main religion in Nepal they follow Vikram Samvat. The ancient hindu calender is used in Indian subcontinent,still now the festivals mainly hindu are celebrated with accordance with Vikram Samvat .

for example in north india -Baisakhi festival is celebrated with the date in Vikram Samvat

in east india (West bengal)-Durga Puja is celebrated with date in Vikram Samvat

in west india (Maharastra)-Ganesh Chuthurti is celebrated with date in Vikram Samvat

Vikram Samvat is a ancient Indian Calendar common in Indian Sub continent -India,Nepal,Bangladesh,Manyamar,Thailand,Cambodia,Srilanka,bhutan etc as the ancient culture in all these country is identical.

This should be corrected

Thanks

Mainly because I know nothing about Indian calendars. Try messaging Sujit - referee for Indian princely states, maybe he can change it, and if not, he can come to us, and I will message Xavier - maybe we can fix it.

I agree with you. VS dating system originates from India. But i can not change the name of the dating system. Maybe the catalog admin or Xavier can help.

So the thing is that it is not wrong in general, just wrongly named?
