<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ian, post: 198877, member: 283&quot;]I don&#039;t the ones i&#039;ve posted are particularly rare or `valuable&#039;.....at least not in cash terms. I just find it interesting to note that they have considerable `heft&#039; to them. The quantum of copper gives the feeling that they are of value....significant. Compare that with the stuff we in the west use as coinage today....</p><p><br /></p><p>Indian coinage has been (IMHO) one of the cheapest ways to seriously study variations / mints...and a whole host of other things. You could easily get lost in the scope available to you through Indian numismatics..... and not regret it. If you have Brit Empire type coinage (Victoria, Edward VII and George V / VI) it is certainly worth holding on to and expanding upon.</p><p><br /></p><p>Tides are beginning to turn though, and I suspect that `cheap&#039; Indian coins are going to be a thing of the past in the not too distant future. However, if i were any good at predicting the future i&#039;d be a lot richer than I am. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
