† Coins of India. British India. Copper ½-Anna, 1862C, flat “1” in date, struck after 1865 (SW 4.155; KM 468). Uncirculated with some mint red, a little discolouration that seems to be a part of many of the early copper coins of India. The coin has a different look to the sloping “1” examples. The mint realised that there was a serious need for these coins, so for this type they took much more time in the production of the dies, allowing better and much more pleasing detail. Part of the David Fore Collection of British Indian Coins. £200-300
