The ₹10 Rupee Ashoka Pillar Premium Packet signed by I.G. Patel is a rare and highly collectible piece of vintage Indian currency, sought after by enthusiasts of Indian banknotes, fancy serial numbers, and numismatics collectibles. The Ashoka Pillar design represents one of the classic and historic designs in Indian paper money.
This premium packet begins with the serial reference 917801 and features a special highlight — 10 notes containing the number 786 in the middle of the serial number. Serial numbers featuring 786 are extremely popular among collectors due to their cultural and symbolic significance, making them one of the most sought-after patterns in Indian currency collecting.
The notes carry the signature of I.G. Patel, former Governor of the Reserve Bank of India, whose signed issues are widely collected by numismatists focusing on RBI signature varieties and vintage Indian banknotes.
Packets containing multiple 786 notes within the same sequence are especially desirable because they combine structured packet continuity with premium fancy serial numbers. Such rare packets are becoming increasingly difficult to find, making this a valuable addition to any Indian currency collection or fancy serial number collection.
