Step back in time to the days of British India with this exquisite set of historical coins – the George VI King Era Old Coins Set. Immerse yourself in the rich history and legacy of the British Raj as you hold in your hands a piece of numismatic treasure that encapsulates an era of change and transition.

This meticulously curated set includes three distinct coins – One Rupee, Half Rupee, and Quarter Rupee – all issued in the name of George VI King, the monarch who ruled during a crucial period in India's history. Crafted in nickel, these coins are authentic relics that were once part of the everyday transactions that shaped the Indian subcontinent.

Obverse:
On the obverse side of each coin stands the regal and iconic portrait of George VI King, crowned and facing left. This side of the coin echoes the power and authority of the British Crown during a time when India was on the cusp of monumental change.

Reverse:
Turn the coins over to discover the reverse side, adorned with the majestic Indian tiger, Panthera tigris, a symbol of India's awe-inspiring wildlife. The denomination is inscribed in three scripts – Nagari, English, and Urdu – representing the diverse linguistic heritage of India.

Historical Significance:
These coins hold a special place in history as they mark the final Rupee coins issued under British rule in India before the nation achieved independence. As you hold these coins, you're holding tangible links to a time of change, struggle, and transformation – a time that shaped the India we know today.

Presentation:
Each coin is carefully preserved in individual coin holders to ensure their lasting beauty and historical integrity. To complete the experience, the set is presented in a thoughtfully designed coin album. This album not only offers protection but also provides a visually appealing way to showcase your collection.
