This Nepalese 4-Paisa coin was minted from a spent brass World War II rifle bullet casing used by the famous Gurkha soldiers who fought the Japanese in the Pacific. Nepalese inscriptions are written on both sides and each coin bears a hole in its center, created by removal of the primer from the casing.  

The Gurkha warriors are feared by many, and are known for their formidability in battle. These repurposed bullet coins provide both intruiging history from the Pacific Theater and the Nepalese people. This piece comes with a certificate of authenticity and a story card, as well as a provenance letter of where the bullets came from. This is an excellent piece for WWII buffs and coin collectors alike.

Highlights:

  • Made from spent shell casings
  • Nepalese Gurkha warriors
  • Certificate of authenticity
