Hello Panah,

Quote:
I am in a midst of doing research on Keris an stumbled upon 4 keris with almost identical talismanic numerals.
Are all 4 currently in the same collection?

The 2nd and 3rd keris went through the hands of Robert Hales and are featured in his book. I believe I saw pics of similar (or possibly the same) keris elsewhere but a quick search in my files failed to retrieve anything of note. Maybe Gustav or our Malay forumites are willing to chime in here?

BTW, please keep us posted on your results!

I am quite profound with the Jawi writings but this these inscription also include an "inverted B". Anyone familiar with this style of inscriptions or perhaps provide any references on this topic for me to start with?
Your best bet is to contact Michael (aka VVV here in the forum) via PM, I guess.

David? Again, any input from the forumites would be great!

Regards,
Kai
