complex as knowing about the history of India. But the famous old coin collectors in India have this knowledge and therefore they can
easily differentiate the coins and their importance. Mr. Ravi Somani is one of the renowned Indian coin collectors, who have
a great collection of Indian coins and notes. Now let’s have a look at the ways
to differentiate different types of old coins.
·
Very good coins: These coins that continued to be less in the
circulation, but which are legend on the obverse and the reverse parts are
legible without taking the help of the magnifying glasses. The figure and the
letters should be tangible in case it is touched by your index finger. Besides,
there should not be any denture or cut marks and these should not spot any
chemical. These coins are the most valuable ones, so these should be kept very
carefully as these lose their luster and shine by rubbing with each other.

Good coins: These coins remain in much circulation but these are
mainly legend on both the sides and these are quite easily legible. These have
no denture or the cut mark on these coins.
·
Un-circulated or UNC coins: These are basically meant for the daily use by the general public. These
are mainly used by the Reserve Bank of India. All these coins are mainly
uncirculated during the time of issuance. These coins are mainly issued by the
collectors of the India Government Mints.
