50 PAISE YEAR 1970 CALCUTTA MINT LOT OF 2 PC PRICE

Description

Step back in time with this exquisite lot of two 50 Paise coins issued by the Republic of India in 1970. Struck in high-grade nickel-brass, these vintage circulated pieces were proudly minted at the esteemed Calcutta Mint, identifiable by their distinct absence of a mint mark. Measuring 24 millimeters in diameter, the obverse features the majestic State Emblem of India, while the reverse showcases the denomination alongside rich agricultural motifs symbolizing the nation's green revolution era. During this pivotal period in Indian numismatics, coin production was carefully regulated, making authentic specimens from the Calcutta facility increasingly scarce today. Numismatists and history enthusiasts alike treasure these mid-century coins for their tangible connection to post-independence economic milestones. Whether you are filling a gap in a definitive type set or starting a new journey into vintage Indian currency, this paired set offers a wonderful glimpse into the past. Carefully preserved in a protective sleeve, these historical artifacts are ready to become the centerpiece of your growing collection.
