  1. Hi, I have several One rupee coins, the first is the one pictured above, the rest are later from 1916 to 1919, about 10 coins in total, I also have 2 half rupee coins dated 1924. I would be interested in an idea of price before going to coin collector/jewellers for quotation.

    Am I correct in saying all coins are pure silver?

    Thanks

  2. I have recently discovered an underweight (10.1 g) counterfeit/forgery of the 1835 One Rupee, made of silver plated copper or brass. I am looking for more information about the forgery, specifically whether it was contemporary or more recent.
