1 Rupee Coin From 1885 Fetches 10 Crore Rupees On Online Auction

If you are fond of old coins and currency and have it placed, you can also get such an opportunity.

Old notes and coins are in great demand in the online market and people are willing to pay up to a hefty amount to get them. Recently, a one rupee coin was auctioned for Rs 10 crore during an online bid. Yes, you must be surprised to hear this but that is absolutely true.     

This coin was rare but its price is definitely shocking. This special one rupee coin was issued in 1885 during the British Raj in India. This pre-independence coin was no less than a pucca lottery ticket for the man. 

So if you are also fond of old coins and currency and have them preserved, you can also get such an opportunity. This hobby of yours can give you a great chance to earn millions and crores of rupees while sitting at home.

There are many websites where people can create their profiles and display their coins there to sell. One of these websites is CoinBazar where you can register yourself by giving your basic details, such as name, email address, phone number. As soon as your listing is entered online, buyers can contact you directly, and directly you can bargain money with them.

However, this is not the first time people have shown such interest in buying old coins. Earlier, in June this year, a 1933 Us coin was sold for $18.9 million (i.e. Rs. 138 crore) during an auction in New York.
