One day in Indian Museum



In the previous week I was visited Indian Museum to explore the Coin Gallery. For this event I pay special thanks to Prof. Chittabrata Palit, Professor ( Retd.) Jadavpur University, Kolkata. He had inspired me to go and explore the coin gallery their. He had introduced me to Dr. Anup K. Matilal, Director, Indian Museum, Kolkata and Mrs. Chanda Mukherjee, Deputy Keeper, Numismatics & Epigraphy, Indian Museum, Kolkata, both of them are disciple of Professor C. Palit. I was gratified in being introduced and talked to those eminent persons.

Indian Museum coin gallery had highlighted the ancient and medieval coins in India. I have captured the information shown under their permission. It is inspiring me to carry this great responsibility. The image showing a very popular replica of Samudraguptas' inscription.
