What decides the value

  • Condition / grade — an uncirculated piece can be worth many times a folded, circulated one.
  • Serial number — 786, solid numbers, low numbers, radars and birthday dates carry a large premium.
  • Signature & series — some governor signatures and series are far scarcer than others.
  • Year & mint mark — for coins, a single year or mint can change the price completely.
  • Errors — genuine minting or printing errors are rare and sought after.

Why is the price range so wide?

Because condition and the serial number decide most of it. The cheapest quarter sold under ₹1,000. The top tenth sold above ₹17,000. It is the same item. What changes is what is printed on it and how well it survived.
