KM-11. Beautifully near-Gem, this one-year type from Dewas is illuminated by much mint red and handsomely struck details. No evidence of handling is present on this entrancing and fiery little beauty. The first "8" in 1888 appears to have been struck through grease or other foreign substance leaving a noticeably lighter strike to this particular digit. To view all items from the Yashoda N.
