VC Comments	Provisional Government of Azad Hind. King George VI. Half Silver. 1 Rupee. 1942/43 Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose had declared the formation of Provisional Government of Free India (Azad Hind) at Singapore 78 years ago (1943). The Provisional Government proclaimed authority over Indian civilian and military personnel in southeast Asian British colonial territory and the prospective authority over Indian territory which would fall to the combined Japanese and Indian National Army forces during the thrust towards India. The government of Azad Hind had plans for its own currency, postage stamps, courts and a civil code. In the eyes of some Indians, its existence gave a greater importance to the independence struggle against the British. While no currency was printed by PGAH, the existence of a few coins was reported in the late 1940s. Among the coins issued by the Provisional Government, the British India 1 rupee (silver) coins had the words ‘PGAH 1943’ embossed on the head of George VI. This killer cancellation was stamped right on the Royal face. Very few of these coins exist, as most were melted for the silver and many had the embossing worn off.
