â¹1 currency note completes 100 years
The â¹1 currency note has completed 100 years after the first note, which was printed in England, was issued on November 30, 1917 in India. The note was launched because the silver used for â¹1 coins was being used to make weaponry components during World War I. Notably, when the note was issued, â¹1 was equivalent to 10.7g of silver.
