Please judge the coin from the photos.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis 1948 Half Crown carries the portrait of King George VI. 1948 is the last year the half crown carried IND IMP (Emperor of India) in its legend, which was dropped after Indian independence. British coins changed from silver to copper-nickel in 1947, so this coin is copper-nickel, not silver.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis exact coin has good detail in the portrait and the royal shield. In fairness to the buyer, there are many fine scratches across the portrait and fields, white residue on the cheek and in the shield, and small dark specks.

The exact container depends on the shipping class: for example, our Standard Envelope option is limited to a maximum of 1\/4\" thickness, so a bubble mailer isn’t used there. Instead, coins travel in a vinyl flip, a thick baggie, or a cardboard flip, whichever best protects that particular coin. We ship daily, Monday through Friday, excluding all USPS holidays.\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"background:#f4f1ea;border:1px solid #ddd6c4;border-radius:6px;padding:14px;\"\u003e\n\u003cb style=\"color:#0f3d2e;display:block;margin-bottom:4px;font-size:13px;letter-spacing:.04em;\"\u003eRETURNS \/ GUARANTEE\u003c\/b\u003eWe maintain (unless otherwise noted on items like bullion) a 30-day, FREE-to-you return policy.
