Conspicuously/grossly (News Use) Coin Fetch's Fortune

Unbelievable, a vintage 1 rupee coin fetched about $7,000 at a auction in India’s IT hub on the country’s sixty-second Independence Day. The lucky owner of the rare coin, minted in 1960, outbid stiff competition from two other rivals to pocket the prized possession. The coin was minted at Bombay Mint in 1960, which never got the approval of senior officers for circulation. A 25 cent gold coin from the British era with Queen Victoria’s etching also garnered great interest among numismatists. It was auctioned for $3,933.
