<p>[QUOTE="iPen, post: 2994574, member: 69760"]As far as I'm aware, there are three different silver types for this 1928 (VS1985) India Princely States Mewar Rupee coin: <a href="https://www.ngccoin.com/price-guide/world/india-princely-states-mewar-rupee-y-22.1-1985-cuid-1132409-duid-1475956" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.ngccoin.com/price-guide/world/india-princely-states-mewar-rupee-y-22.1-1985-cuid-1132409-duid-1475956" rel="nofollow">Y #22.1</a> (Thin characters), <a href="https://www.ngccoin.com/price-guide/world/india-princely-states-mewar-rupee-y-22.2-1985-cuid-1202465-duid-1474837" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.ngccoin.com/price-guide/world/india-princely-states-mewar-rupee-y-22.2-1985-cuid-1202465-duid-1474837" rel="nofollow">Y #22.2</a> (Thick characters), and <a href="https://www.ngccoin.com/price-guide/world/india-princely-states-mewar-rupee-km-pn9-1985-1928-cuid-1179837-duid-1581177" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.ngccoin.com/price-guide/world/india-princely-states-mewar-rupee-km-pn9-1985-1928-cuid-1179837-duid-1581177" rel="nofollow">Pn9</a> (Pattern).
