Product details
This is a certified 1919(B) British India One Rupee silver coin, graded MS 63 (Mint State) by NGC (Numismatic Guaranty Company), one of the world's leading third-party coin grading authorities. The "B" mintmark indicates this coin was struck at the Bombay Mint.
The obverse features the crowned bust of King George V with the legend "GEORGE V KING EMPEROR," while the coin carries the classic British India silver Rupee design synonymous with the colonial-era coinage of the subcontinent. An MS 63 grade places this coin firmly in the uncirculated category, with strong luster, sharp strike detail, and only light contact marks consistent with a coin that never entered heavy circulation - making it a standout piece for collectors seeking high-grade British India silver.
Each coin is permanently sealed in an NGC tamper-evident holder along with its certification label, showing the date, mint, grade, and a unique certification number (3942268-005) that can be independently verified on NGC's official database - giving you full confidence in both authenticity and condition.
Why this coin matters for your collection:
Whether you're building a King George V type set or investing in certified British India silver, this NGC MS 63 1919(B) Rupee is a solid, verifiable addition to any serious collection.
