Comment
- Calcutta mintInteresting fact
One interesting fact about the ¼ Anna coin from India, minted during the reign of Edward VII (1906-1910), is that it was part of a series of coins that were designed to commemorate the silver jubilee of King Edward VII. The coin features an image of the king on one side and the value of the coin on the other. The use of bronze in the coin's minting was a departure from the traditional silver or gold used in previous coins, and it was a cost-saving measure that allowed for the production of more coins. Despite being made of a less valuable material, the coin remains a valuable collector's item due to its historical significance and rarity.
