Message:: [QUOTE="cplradar, post: 7354047, member: 108985"]This ebay selling is quite upfront and informatibe.  I have faith in him:  See this response: HiYes! there are forgeries about India Rupees. 10 rupees 1970 Bombay mint for example (there is a nickel type) but you can see the difference about the sun and the flower. There are other 3 type of 10 rupees Colgata mint without the dot and Bombay mint with waves upon the date and not (They are varieties)You must remember: all the India Rupees mint in Bombay from 10 rupees to 100 rupees in Unc condition have the dot under the date and are proof-like (similar mirrow) . All the India coins inserted in fao panels or albums are originals and prooflikes If you see a 20 or 50 or 100 rupees in unc condition and opaque not proof like ; pay attention!!!! it may be forgeries. I have seen some 20 o 100 rupees 1986 (fake type).Instead the Proof type are only in original set and have the B under the date. The B must be very clear. Somebody broke the set and some single proof type can exist (10 rupees 1970 or 1971 or 10 and 20 rupees 1973 or 1974. An other parameter to look for is the serration (the line on the edge)It is reported in description card of india set).This is the last control if you have still doubt.Regards[/QUOTE]
