- Value: 1/2 Rupee.
- Year: 1934.
- Reign: George V (1910–1936).
- Inscriptions: Obverse: GEORGE V KING EMPEROR. Reverse: HALF RUPEE INDIA 1934, surrounded by a rich floral motif with lotus flowers, roses and thistles.
- Grade: MS63 (NGC).

Colonial silver coin minted during British rule in India and struck at the Calcutta Mint, identified by the letter “C” under the date. The obverse presents the crowned bust of King George V dressed in imperial uniform. The reverse, of great artistic beauty, features a complex vegetal ornamentation around the face value and issuing country. This design is part of the iconic “floral” series started in 1911. An exemplary specimen in excellent condition, with sharp details and original lustre, certified by NGC as MS63.

Disclaimer: For orders shipped outside the European Union, I want to leave absolutely clear that I do ship from Spain, which means that if the package is sent to any country outside the European Union, and/or inside the EU that has a special tax agreement (example: Canary Islands), it might be stopped in your local customs and they might ask you to pay taxes. This is a customs legal procedure and it is completely out of our control. Thanks for your understanding.
