Actually, there are more than 11 of them. There are at least 2 in the Smithsonian. There is also a widely held belief that the coin that was sold...
There are numerous coins where only one example was produced. This year alone I handled several. I also handled probably around 100 coins were the...
Anyone know anything about this coin? [img] I picked it up in a large collection I purchased and know nothing about it or even that it...
It has the appearance of a proof. Indian proofs are frequently not of high quality. Krause lists proofs starting in 1960, so it is possible that...
Very little India. It's in at PCGS right now. I think it was mainly better type, but XF condition coins. Nothing spectacular. Hopefully I'll get...

When mailing, I put them in the crown size flips and then put all those flips in a ziplock bag. Then wrap the bag around itself and tape closed....
PCGS does NOT require Registered Mail. I thrown many coins in padded mailers and sent them off to them. None of the TPG require Registered. They...
If you need help to determine the authenticity of a coin - including such an obviously altered coin like this example - them you should not be...
I know very little about these, but these coins do not look old to me. They look like they were struck in the 1970's.
