Recently i found this one rupee india coin of the year 1871. The reverse side had wordings “Victoria Empress”

 

But someone told me it should have wordings “Victoria Queen”.

 

The coin weights about 11.47 grams. Pictures are attached for your reference.

Victoria became empress of India in 1877 … so there is your answer, also even if it would say ‘queen’ there is no 1871 issue.

🤣

 

I literally died when I saw that on coin. Seems like Queen Victoria is actually Queen Parvati lol. Someone has damn good sense of humour. Needless to say that coins is a blatant forgery.
