Description:

This 1939 2 Annas coin from British India, minted in Bombay, is a tangible artifact from the era of British rule. Issued during the reign of King George VI, this coin circulated throughout the Indian subcontinent. The distinctive scalloped or shaped design is a characteristic feature of some denominations of British Indian coinage.

The obverse features a portrait of King George VI, with the inscription “GEORGE VI KING EMPEROR” surrounding his image. The reverse displays the denomination “2 ANNAS” prominently in the center. Below this, “INDIA” is inscribed, along with the year of minting, 1939. There are also inscriptions in Urdu (above the “2”) and Telugu regional Indian script (below the date). These multilingual inscriptions reflect the diverse linguistic landscape of British India.
