What is the value of a quarter rupee coin clearly dated 1082 and please tell you why this coin is dated 1082 because this coin was not in circulation until many many years later many thanks?

Answer 1

Not all countries use the Gregorian Calendar. Different states and regions of India have used many different calendars over the years, and for different reasons and purposes.

Due to the efforts of the Calendar Reform Committee, India currently use the Gregorian Calendar side by side with the official "Indian National Calendar" or Saka Calendar.

Please note that this is little more than a poorly educated guess, but your coin is possibly dated according to the Kolla Varsham Calendar, which runs at 824 years behind the Gregorian Calendar, making your 1082 coin (Kolla Varsham), a 1906 coin (Gregorian).

Your coin in good condition, might get $2 USD.

A reputable coin dealer will be able to give a more accurate valuation.
