1894 British India Copper 1/4 Anna BU
Struck at the Calcutta Mint in 1894, this copper coin represents a fascinating chapter of the late nineteenth century under British administration in India. Despite a substantial mintage of over 45 million pieces, encountering an example in such an exceptional state of preservation is a remarkable find for those who appreciate numismatic history. The obverse features the left-facing portrait of Queen Victoria, depicted wearing a royal crown. This classic imperial likeness is paired with a reverse design that neatly displays the denomination, country, and year of manufacture. The central text, which reads as one quarter anna, is framed by a delicate decorative wreath that encircles the inscriptions.
