Note – We Do not ship out of India

This is an authentic 1 Rupee banknote from the Republic of India, issued in 1973 during a significant period of India’s post-independence monetary history. Signed by M.G. Kaul, a notable Reserve Bank of India Governor, this note features the distinctive violet color characteristic of 1 Rupee notes from this era. The design showcases a large ornamental numeral “1” prominently displayed in the centre, with a smaller watermark window and denomination numbers positioned to the left—distinctive design elements that make this series highly recognizable among collectors.

Graded in Almost UNC (Almost Uncirculated) condition, this note represents an exceptional example of 1970s Indian currency with minimal wear and tear. While minor stains are present as documented in the images, the overall preservation quality remains remarkable for a note of this age. The ‘E’ inset designation adds further specificity to this particular variant.

This piece holds considerable appeal for currency collectors and numismatic enthusiasts who appreciate India’s monetary heritage and Reserve Bank signatures. Notes from the Kaul era are increasingly sought after, making this a worthwhile addition to any collection of Indian paper currency or a meaningful investment in numismatic history.
