◇MintSF◇1881-Meia (1/2) Rupia, India-Portuguese, Silver, Luis I., About Uncirculated, (AU), 356 K mintage, 1st year of Issue!
This is a 92% silver 1/2 rupia that was minted at the Calcutta Mint for Portuguese India during the reign of Portuguese King Luis I.  I consider this coin to most likely be considered
about uncirculated,
however I am not a coin expert.  I request that you examine my photos closely and decide how you believe this coin might grade.
Please note:
This coin is of low mintage with only 356,000 coins produced and it is even more rare in this condition.  This coin would make a great addition to any world coin collection.
Shipping is free for all customers in the United States and its territories.  International buyers are eligible for a credit equal to the shipping charge of a US residential package going from coast to coast which in this case is $3.85.  Please message me after the sale for a refund or if purchasing with other items, you may send a request for an invoice with the credit in advance.
•I try to be accommodating for all buyers.
eBay policy states that items are supposed to be paid within 48 hours, however I can make an exception to this for those with outstanding bids and in special circumstances.  Unless you notify me about outstanding bids or contact me for delayed payment arrangements, eBay has changed its policy and allows sellers to cancel all unpaid sales at the sellers discretion after 4 business days.  I will only resort to this for customers who do not contact me or fail to respond to inquiries regarding payment.
Please note that eBay will notate the account of those who fail to pay for their bids or accepted offers and they may place restrictions on your account due to this.  I truly hate putting anyone's account in jeopardy so please communicate with me if there is a payment issue or you are waiting on other items to close for possible combined shipping.  I will do my best to try to work with you.
▪︎ Different items have different shipping prices.
You will be charged the highest shipping price for the heaviest item.  All additional items will be charged at the second item price that would have been charged within their shipping category.
For example: If you bought a graded and slabbed coin it would cost you $2.75 shipping, but if you also bought a regular coin that did not qualify for Ebay Standard Envelope and one that did you would pay $1.00 extra for the non qualifying coin and andditional $.50 for the Ebay Standard Envelope coin which would save you $1.50 in shipping. Those charges would be in addition to the $2.75 shipping for the slabbed coin.
The easiest thing to do in this case is to request an invoice and I promise I will reduce the shipping costs within reason.
Sometimes on really large orders of multiple coins that do not qualify for free shipping I will reduce the price further, but this is at my discretion.  I do reward my frequent buyers as I am able.
• If using USPS shipping options, I do try to send items out on Saturdays also to help get shipments to my customers faster.  Generally, items ship within 24 hours, however there are occasions that this is not possible, but I do my best to make sure this happens.
•International sales are gladly accepted and I have various shipping options available for you.
•I do combine shipments for international buyers so if you are selecting Ebay International Delivery, please message me prior to paying for your items.  I will do my best to provide you with a cheaper combined shipping price if one is available.  If you accept my shipping, I will send you a combined invoice and send your items generally within 1 business day of payment.
▪︎Please note that international buyers are responsible to pay any duty or taxes placed on your shipment after it clears your countries respective customs.
▪︎Please review my photographs of all items.  I shoot my pics in a lightbox and I do not alter my photos except to crop them.  If I use any other method or manipulate lighting to help highlight a detail I will always note it in my description.
▪︎I am not a coin expert and will not ever claim to be.  The descriptions I use are broadly based on the Sheldon Coin Grading Scale, however unless a coin is certified and graded I will not list a numerical grade.
