Cambodia 100 Riels Coin (KM# 93)

I have this coin and when I found in catalogue, I saw this bug.

I reply to this topic instead of create another new. This topic was rejected, but I suppose (I expect!) because was started two year ago and was unsolved.

The coin is this: N#6107

• Year according lettering: គ.ស.១៩៩៤ ព.ស.២៥៣៨  1994 AD 2538 BE – This “translation” of numbers is correct according https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thai_numerals
• Year in list: calendar Thai, year 2538
• Year displayed: 2538 (1995) -- This is an error according lettering

Similar coins are:

• N#6725
• N#6108
• N#6024

All have:

• Year according lettering: same (គ.ស.១៩៩៤ ព.ស.២៥៣៨  1994 AD 2538 BE)
• Year in list: calendar Gregorian/Julian, year 1994
• Year displayed: 1994 -- Correct

In Krause catalogue year is 1994, too (in the four coins).

The problem is the calendar conversion:

• According https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thai_calendar AD = BE - 543.
• In these coins BE = 2538 => AD = 2538 - 543 = 1995, but according the lettering 2538 BE = 1994 AD.
   

Can be several reasons (there is an error in the lettering of the four coins!, Cambodia use another conversion rules, or another day 1 in the year...). In any case, the year according these coins is 1994 AD, not 1995 AD.

Solution: Calendar and year of N#6107 must be changed as the others:

• calendar Gregorian/Julian,
• year 1994.

I will open a suggestion for modify the calendar, and I add a link to this topic for modify the year from 2538 BE to 1994 AD.

The calendar was fixed.

Year must be changed to 1994. There is another topic for this: https://en.numista.com/forum/topic127666.html
