One rupee: 1950
The first one rupee coin of republic India was released in 1950. After that the one rupee coin came out in 1954; whererafter the design was changed in 1962, with no mintage in the in between years. Since the one rupee coins of 1950 and 1954 were minted only in the Bombay mint, my collection of this coin type is complete.
