Beschrijving voorzijde The heraldic shield of the East India Company occupies the central field, supported by two rampant lions and surmounted by a crest incorporating St. George's cross with flanking flags. A ribbon below the shield bears the Latin motto 'Auspicio Regis et Senatus Angliae' (By the Command of the King and Parliament of England). The date 1835 appears alongside the abbreviated legend AUSP: REG: SEN: ANG: The overall composition is rendered in a neoclassical heraldic style characteristic of early nineteenth-century British colonial coinage.

Aanvullende informatie

The 1835 coinage reform was a landmark reorganization of East India Company currency, consolidating the chaotic patchwork of presidency coinages into a unified series. These gold pattern pieces were struck at the Tower of London or by specialist diesinkers to demonstrate proposed designs to Company and Crown authorities — they were never sanctioned for circulation and exist in tiny numbers.

William IV died in June 1837, before the reformed coinage saw widespread use. Most circulating 1835-dated pieces that eventually reached India bore Victoria's effigy, struck retroactively after her accession.
