I have a few pigs but none with pigs on them.
Problematic coin design created a crisis for the British in 1911 where the elephant resembled a pig with the trunk appearing to be a pig snout and the short legs that were unlike those of the pachyderm.
This offended the religious sentiments of many, so most of the British India Rupees minted in 1911 were withheld from circulation and later melted. From 1912 onwards, the coins had a redesigned elephant.
Had posted about it earlier on the world coins sub
