Edward VII, Copper, Quarter Anna, 1904, Calcutta Mint, No mint mark. GK 995. NGS Slabbed MS 61 BN. Scarce.

Edward VII Copper Quarter Anna 1904, Calcutta Mint (GK 995) is a British India circulation coin issued during the early Edwardian period as part of the standard fractional currency system used across the Indian subcontinent. Struck in copper with a brown (BN) surface designation, the obverse features the crowned and draped bust of King Edward VII with imperial titles, while the reverse carries the denomination “Quarter Anna” along with the date of issue, typically within a simple ornamental framework and without a distinct mint mark for Calcutta issues of this type. This coin belongs to the early 20th-century minor series that saw extensive daily circulation across colonial India. The example graded NGC MS61 BN indicates an uncirculated coin with original brown surfaces, moderate mint luster, and minor contact marks consistent with early mint handling, making it a collectible but relatively accessible Mint State specimen, noted here as scarce in this specific graded condition.
