Palouche Pillar of the Community Spain 2752 Posts	Posted 02/05/2019 09:39 am Next up is the little silver Two Annas (1/8 Indian Rupee)... 2 Annas = 15mm diameter...1.45grams..Edge plain...silver .917..KM#505. Unlike the Copper/Bronze denominations, which used the original reverse design of the Victora series, the silver coinage had a new re-designed and more simplified reverse. See details below... All 2 Anna coins were minted at Calcutta with no mintmark.. 1903-1910.... Key Date 1910 with lowest mintage 1,603,811 Here's my example (nicely toned) King Edward VII 1907....2 Annas..Mintage 22,144,648..KM#505... Report this Post to the Staff
