20 Cents 1886 obverse
Head of Victoria with coronet to left, "Victoria Queen".
2.332 g, 800 fine silver (0.060 oz ASW), reeded edge.
The British India rupee was used as currency in Mauritius, and the cent is 1/100 of that. Unlike the Indian fractional pieces, this one is made subsidiary by a reduction in fineness.
