Four silver Rupees from Imperial India. There are two Queen Victoria ones in the top row from 1862 and 1900. Then in the bottom row are two King Edward VII’s from 1904 and 1906.

 

They are composed of 91.7% silver, a nice round figure! They weigh 11.5 grams and are 3.1 cm wide, about the size of a U.S half-dollar or an English 50pence piece

 

For the group, Smile on Saturdays with a task of “Regard the R”!

~ MK Gandhi

 

Change is very necessary in life - to keep us moving, to keep us growing and to keep us interested.

 

The only way to bring any change is to change the way you think - give yourself a whack on the side of the head and think about doing it the other way.

 

According to an ancient prophecy, whoever could untie the "gordian knot" was destined to become king of Asia. All who tried - failed to solve this complicated puzzle. Then Alexander the Great had a turn. He also failed to find a starting point of the knot. Finally ,after many attempts, he pulled out his sword and cut the knot in half. Asia was fated to him.

 

He challenged the rules and didn't do the obvious.

 

Change isn't that bad - you see! Wouldn't life be "lifeless" if there was no change?

This is a macro shot of the Gandhi motif on a 20 INR currency note.

India’s a temptress (capital markets-wise). Don’t be seduced—at least not for the balance of 2011. For more, see the Fisher Investments MarketMinder research analysis, “Don’t Be Tempted By India.” www.marketminder.com

Either from my mother or father.

I saw it for the first time yesterday, when a shopkeeper gave me change !!

It's the most minimalist Indian coin, in terms of design, I has ever see (what say?)

(or is it a clever fake??)

two anna- old indian currency

Got my 100mm f/2.8 macro and it is really tough to work at 1:1 magnification. Also you require lots of light at those magnification. I think i will have a very steep learning curve with this lens.

 

P.S: the light fall off at the top left could have been avoided, i was a bit lazy :-(
