1945 George VI 1 Pice – Bombay Mint (Large Dot) | Flat Crown Variety | NGC MS 65 RB

Struck in 1945 at the Bombay Mint, this bronze 1 Pice of George VI is a notable late-war issue from the British India series. Catalogued as GK 1443 and Pridmore 703, the coin features the Flat Crown portrait of King George VI on the obverse and the denomination on the reverse. The coin is distinguished by the Bombay Mint Dot mint mark, specifically the Large Dot variety, an important attribution sought after by specialists in British Indian coinage.

Certified by NGC as MS 65 RB (Red Brown), this specimen is preserved in impressive gem mint-state condition, displaying sharp strike details, strong original lustre, and an attractive blend of mint red and mellow brown coloration. High-grade examples of this variety are increasingly difficult to locate, particularly with such appealing eye appeal and certified quality.

A rare and premium-quality specimen, this 1945 Bombay Mint 1 Pice combines historical significance, scarce variety status, and exceptional preservation. It is an outstanding addition to advanced collections of George VI coinage, British India bronze denominations, and certified numismatic rarities.
