Pandas version checks
I have checked that this issue has not already been reported.
I have confirmed this bug exists on thelatest version of pandas.
I have confirmed this bug exists on themain branch of pandas.
Reproducible Example
importpandasaspddate=pd.Timestamp("2025-01-01")df=pd.DataFrame(columns=["date"],index=["a","b","c"])df["date"]=dateprint(df["date"].dtype)# Output: datetime64[s] Expected: datetime64[ns]print(df.to_json())# Output: {"date":{"a":1696,"b":1696,"c":1696}}# Expected: {"date":{"a":1735689600000,"b":1735689600000,"c":1735689600000}}
Issue Description
When assigning a pd.Timestamp to a column in a DataFrame, the resulting dtype of the column is not as expected, and the output of to_json() is incorrect.
Expected Behavior
The dtype of the date column should default to datetime64[ns] after assignment.
The output of df.to_json() should correctly represent the timestamp in milliseconds since the epoch.
