Why a coin with history
More than silver
A new silver coin from the bank is silver and nothing more. A British India rupee is silver with a story, and no two are alike.
Gifting
Silver that carries a story
In Indian homes, silver is shubh. It stands for purity, prosperity and the blessings of Goddess Lakshmi, which is why it is bought on Dhanteras and given at Diwali. A silver coin is an auspicious wish for wealth and good fortune, kept and treasured for generations.
Dhanteras silver
Buying silver on Dhanteras is a tradition. A coin struck more than a century ago makes it one you will remember.
Family shagun
Shagun ke 11 or 21 sikke, in silver with real history. A lasting alternative to sweets and envelopes.
Gift for any occasion
Weddings, birthdays, griha pravesh, a newborn's first blessing or a thank you to your team. A silver coin with history suits every celebration, and bigger packs cost less per coin.

Questions
Before you light the diyas
Are these coins genuine silver?
Yes. Every coin is a genuine British India one rupee coin struck in silver: the William IV, Edward VII and George V rupees are 91.7% silver, and the wartime George VI rupees of 1940-1945 are 50% silver. NumisPoint guarantees authenticity on every order.
Which years and grades will I receive?
Each lot is "random years, good grades": the exact years vary from order to order within the range shown, and coins are in good collector grades with the natural signs of age. The photos are representative.
How does "buy more, save more" work?
The price per coin drops as your quantity grows (at 5, 11 and 21 coins). Pick a shagun pack of 11, 21 or 51 coins on this page, or set any number you like; the cart shows the lower price straight away.
Can I mix different monarchs?
Yes. Each lot has its own tiers, and shipping for bulk lots is charged once on the total number of coins in your order, so mixing lots keeps shipping low.
Will my coins arrive in time for Diwali?
We pack and ship within 2-3 business days, and delivery time then depends on your city. Place your order soon and your coins will reach you in time for Dhanteras and Diwali gifting.
Do the prices include GST?
Yes, all prices shown include GST. Shipping is added at checkout.
Are these good Diwali and Dhanteras gifts?
Silver is a traditional Dhanteras purchase, and a coin with real history makes a gift that lasts. A few coins make a thoughtful family shagun, and packs of 21 or 51 cost less per coin when you gift at weddings and other occasions.
