George V, Silver ½ Rupee, 1925, Calcutta Mint (Prid 328). Graded by NGC MS61, date wrongly labelled.1923

George V Silver ½ Rupee, 1925, Calcutta Mint (Prid 328) is a British India circulation coin struck in .917 fine silver, issued as part of the standard imperial coinage series for everyday monetary use across colonial India. The obverse bears the crowned portrait of King George V with surrounding legends, while the reverse features the denomination “½ Rupee” within a decorative wreath along with the year and Calcutta mint mark. This example has been certified by NGC with a Mint State grade of MS61, indicating strong uncirculated preservation with minor marks typical of mint handling. Notably, the holder carries an incorrect date attribution of 1923 instead of the correct 1925 issue year, a known cataloguing or labelling error that does not affect the coin’s actual mint issue but is often mentioned for collector reference.
