Harry, I think you were talking about these two varieties. See if it helps...

Awesome @MWM! Yes these are the two varieties for the 1944B Rupee.   Your pictures capture it perfectly.  I really appreciate you sharing this!

Here is a list for KGVI 1/2 Rupee showing all the different design types that I came up with. Notice 1939 and 1942 1/2 Rupee come in two different design for that year.  These are business strikes only and I have not included proofs and restrikes.


   Date      Head Type      Sub Category      Ref no.   
   1938      First      n/a      KM 549   
   1939      First      n/a      KM 549   
   1939      Second      Large Head      KM 550   
   1940      Second      Large Head      KM 500a   
   1941      Second      Large Head      KM 551   
   1942      Second      Large Head      KM 511   
   1942      Second      Small Head      KM 552   
   1943-45      Second      Small Head      KM 552

We need to do a similar list for the KGVI Rupee!
