<p>[QUOTE=&quot;acanthite, post: 188961, member: 6647&quot;]Ian, these are some great coins. This one I&#039;ve never seen. The script used in Burma, as well as Sri Lanka and some other parts of south India, is stated to have evolved around avoidance of straight lines, as that tended to tear the leaves it was written on.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The actual date on the coin is 1214, which refers to the Chulasakarat era (beginning in 638AD). Nowadays coins in Myanmar have the Gregorian year.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
