British India. Madras Presidency 1/2 Pagoda ND (1808-1811) MS65 NGC, KM353, Prid-169. Large English letters variety. A flashy offering rarely encountered so fine, the argent appearances aglow with prominent mint brilliance. A visually intriguing issue featuring a tall, tapered pagoda flanked by stars and an English legend decorated with heavy metal flow. A conditional rarity as the sole second-finest, with one ranking finer in MS66 at NGC.
