I also don't mind to be wrong (I think we all have been wrong one time) but I think when we translate a date it should be correct, this have been my interest. And I am sure we can believe Dom by this.
Of course it may be possible that the date not certainly the date when the silver work was been done but the accepting is nearby. I have tried to take some pictures of the keris from the book and I hope that it is to seen that the style is so similar that it may be possible that it have been the same artist. This pendok is also dated in the same way. The date is 1281 AH = 1864 AD. There is a time difference from only 9 years so it's really possible that it have been the same artist and that the date is the date of fabrication.
