India: George V 1918 Gold 15 Rupees Proof restrike PCGS PR64
India: George V 1918 Gold 15 Rupees Proof restrike PCGS PR64
One of the great rarities of British Indian numismatics, the 1918(B) 15 Rupees Restrike was produced in extremely limited numbers for collectors, faithfully reproducing the celebrated wartime gold issue of 1918. Distinguished by its elegant Art Nouveau-inspired reverse, the type is regarded as one of the most beautiful designs of the Indian series and is seldom encountered in such impressive preservation.
Certified PCGS PR64, this handsome example displays deeply reflective fields and rich golden brilliance, beautifully complemented by frosted central devices that create an attractive cameo contrast. Both the regal portrait of George V and the intricate ornamental reverse are sharply struck, with outstanding detail throughout and exceptional eye appeal.
A classic coinage of the British Empire, combining artistic excellence, rarity, and historical significance. Highly sought after by collectors of Indian and world gold coinage, this is an outstanding example of one of the finest modern restrikes issued for the series.
