Description
Product Description:
The 1 Paisa nickel-brass coin was issued by the Government of India in 1962 and 1963 as part of the early decimal coinage system. The obverse features the Lion Capital of Ashoka with “भारत / INDIA”, while the reverse displays the denomination “1 Naya Paisa” along with the year of issue.
Struck in durable nickel-brass alloy, these coins are lightweight yet strong and were among the earliest decimal small denominations. Today, they are considered collectible vintage coins in Indian numismatics.
