Coins & Notes

The Dissertation topic has been declared for MS students. I have to explore socio-historical impact of coins and currencies in Indian Doctrine. Initially I have to write a synopsis. Then to go for main stream. This project will take place under Mr. Nataraj Dasgupta, Curator, Central Research & Training Laboratory, Kolkata. I may have to go for British Council, Indian Museums & National Library, Kolkata, to get necessary documents.

Before this, I have a hobby to collect foreign coins very long back. It was no longer continued due to several reasons. Till then, I have coins from Canada, USA, France, Britain, Netherlands and notes from Nepal & Bangladesh. The hobby has lost but the past hobby turned into a big Dissertation and this Dissertation made a huge responsibility.
