text:
The Bombay Mint sovereign is a British one pound coin dated 1918, minted from August 1918 to April 1919 at the Royal Mint’s Bombay branch. It has an "I" mint mark, to distinguish it from other sovereigns. Gold bound for London from South Africa was diverted to India due to naval blockades during the First World War. As a result, a branch mint was established in India and, for one year only, Sovereigns were struck in Bombay.
