| Additional information |
French India — the scattered colonial territories of Pondicherry, Karikal, Mahé, Yanam, and Chandernagore — ceased to exist as a French possession by 1954, with the last territory formally ceded to India in 1962. A bimetallic rupee dated 2021 bearing that issuer name is not a product of any historical monetary authority; it is almost certainly a modern fantasy or novelty piece with no connection to actual French Indian coinage, which ended decades before bimetallic technology entered mainstream minting.
