India 1/4, 1/2, and 1 Rupee 1835

The nice-looking half rupee in our picture sold at a 2014 Baldwin's auction for 260 British pounds, about $400 US dollars. Collectors are willing to pay strong premiums when desirable coins have no problems (splotches, stains, spots, cleanings, nicks, gouges, etc) and great eye appeal.

If you have one of these coins, you should get a good coin catalog and check out the many subtle variations that can change the value, either up or down, substantially. There is a good writeup on these coins over at Chiefa Coins. The Baldwin coin is a 1835C, raised 'F' variety.
