A century ago on Jan 02,1918, India got its rare, and strange, Rs 2.5 note

On January 2, 1918, the British government of India released an exotic bank note of Rupees Two and Annas Eight, or two and a half rupees, as one rupee in British India was divided into 16 annas — a term adopted from the pre-British Muslim monetary system.

This unique, fractional Rupee currency issue completes a centennial today Tuesday Jan 02,2018
